Wide soundstage and interesting music....

By the way think about embedding the audio system’s components before spending for upgrading them...

Mechanical resonance embedding, electrical embedding, and acoustical embedding are very important more impactful than " almost" any change in electronic component even dac or in some case speakers.......

If I would reveal what my dac is and at what cost you would be insulted....

And I listen to details and wide soundstage with depth and with all the music out of the speakers in nearfield or in regular listening...Priced component are generally better but embedding rightfully a low cost good component is way more impactful than buying a costlier one without controlling the embedding rightfully most of the times...

Wide soundstage..

I agree on the tin pan Alley rec. The archives version is awesome. 

If you are looking at the Dave I would recomend trying the Bartok. While it is a bit more expensive it has a network streamer builtin as well. Plus dCS updates the firmware with improvements over time as well. I owned a TT2 and mscaler I had auditioned the Bartok and dave and preferred the Bartok it presented a bigger sound stage and more realistic imaging. 

Maybe take a look at the MSB discrete too. My friend had a premire that was fluly upgraded and it was amazing. He traded it up to the reference which I can't wait to hear. 

Hi martin-andersen, I strongly recommend that before you change anything else in your system, please try with speaker positioning.
I experienced a similar problem with two different Dacs. The cheaper one produced a huge soundstage while the 3x more expensive was disappointing in this regard. I blamed the source, the cables (usb and XLR IC, speakers cables), etc. I tried everything but the soundstage was still narrower.
Short story, I finally found that changing the speaker positing (separation between speakers, distance from the wall and less toe in) gave me the soundstage I was looking for.
At this point I realize that the speaker were perfectly set for my previous DAC sound (cheaper one), but it was not the perfect setup for the new higher end DAC.
Also keep in mind that the Orchid could have a more forward presentation, that can be perceived as a bigger soundstage compared to a more high end DAC that needs to be a bit more laid back in order to produce layers of sound, depth, precise imaging, natural and organic sound. Maybe that is the reason why you perceive the Dave is the winner in every aspect except the soundstage. My advice, let your brain and ears get used to the Dave sound and play with your speaker positioning. Also keep in mind that Dave is an outstanding DAC, which deserves high quality component to really shine. 
Please let us know what are you using actually as a source to the Dave, which cables are involved between the source and the DAC, and the cables you are using as interconnect to your amplifier. Speaker cables too.
There could be a weak point also there. 

What what are using for a streamer & a digital cable (USB or coax, etc)? What power cable are you currently using for the Dave DAC and all your other equipments? And what kind of AC power product do you have for your setup? 
All these factors will be crucial.
