Forgot to mention the perfect wave MKII as another potential. I realize the ayre and brick are a few years old now, but from what I've read, they still hold their own with modern DACs.
Uprgrading my Metrum Octave DAC
I currently have a Metrum Octave DAC with an audiphileo-2 feeding it. I'm thinking of auditioning some other DACs in the sub $3000 range to replace it. I would prefer to have a one box solution, so am considering:
the Ayre QB-9 or maybe a wavelength Brick
Has anyone compared either of these to the Octave, or have any other suggestions?
