Weiss Dac2/Minerva?


I'm thinking of picking up the Dac2, anyone using one? I like the firewire inputs for connectivity with my Mac mini & the higher rez possibilities as well. The reviews all sound great too. The Dac2 is of course the lower priced version of the much more expensive Weiss Minerva.
I'm currently using my Wadia 860X as a dac through it's digital inputs. It's fed by a Mac mini, which sends the signal via usb to an Empirical Audio Freeway 2, then RCA spdif into the Wadia's inputs.
Thanks!

Incidentally, I was using the EC-1 Upsampling CD player not the Stand alone DAC by Electrocompaniet...

I am told that the DAC is the same as used in the CD player ( and attractively priced, though without a USB input.)

I have not heard the EC DAC.

A friend who also has the EC-1 Upsampling CD player and has heard the DAC with an Oppo used as a transport, tells me that the EC-1 Upsampling CD player sounded significantly superior....

Just my 2 cents
In order to much improve the sound of a Weiss DAC2 when used with a CD transport,i advise to use a transport having a word clock sync input,and to connect it to a master clock having a very low jitter spec,f e less than 5 ps,...the DAC2 automatically clocks to its input signal.
If quoted on 20,the sound quality level may improve from 15 to 17-18.5 depending on the cables used.
I suggest apogee cable for the clock to word input,and AES interconnect made with silver wires of 0.3 mm dia,tressed like kimber cables,much more transparent than any 120 ohm AES standard one.
