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?

The proof is in the listening. Even listening in the 16/44 radio streaming is better. Don't get caught up in the numbers and such. Just listen!

It's no contest between the two. I really didn't expect as much of a difference as I found. Without going into a lot of hoopla, let's just say that the W4S bettered the Dac 3 in every category. The W4S will take 500 hrs of break in to really smooth out and settle down from the break in irregularities.
