Wyred for Sound DAC 2 or Peachtree Nova


I'm looking for a new dac to replace my Bel Canto Dac 3. I would use the Nova as a Dac preamp only. What do you think?

It's a mystery to me how designers pick one particular chip over another. The sound of a DAC has as much to do with the design of the analog output stage as it does with the chip that gets used.

That said, I'd like to hear the W4S, but I'm happy as a clam with my Bel Canto DAC3.
Philefreak, what did you decide to replace your Bel Canto DAC3 with? Did you go with a new W4S DAC?
