Pity, all that’s missing is a volume control so you can go direct to amp, as it has 2.5v output.

Some good reading on it here posted by project86

I don't want to buy now and wait 6 months or until they finally get their production issues sorted out.  The guy who is claiming the design is his really missed an opportunity.  If he had product ready to go right now, he could have sold me one of those if he could have had it to me next week.
Thx George. I believe you are correct w my ol dac being delta sigma and as I don’t believe the files I import are pcm or dsd(not actually sure) I think I’ll pass on this r2r for now, tempting as it is. Appreciate your input. Cheers, Mike
Call me “cheap skate”, I’m in George...🙃and I thank you for heads up!
Cheers!   
I think it’s the six month wait that’s a deal buster for some of us. That’s a long time in the world of digital technology, and who knows what’s going to turrn up in the interim.
