Six DAC Comparison
@fuzzbutt17   So have you been trimming or adjusting the Mystique X series DAC's?  When reading your post you mentioned that you just purchased the correct equipment to do that, So do the people with a current DAC send them in to get them adjusted... 
Six DAC Comparison
@mitch2 Thanks for the response on the Helene.  I am in Oklahoma and if you bike you don't have much of a window.  As we get into the summer the temperatures gets up past 100 degrees and in the fall and winter it is very windy so you got to get it... 
Six DAC Comparison
@fuzzbutt17 I have seen several DAC's now daisy chain DAC chips and seen the Aries-Cerat daisy chain several of the same DAC chips that is in the Mystique DAC's.  Have you thought about doing it in your models.  Is there a pro/con to doing this?    
Six DAC Comparison
@fuzzbutt17 Will the new Mystique Z have a TOSLINK input?    
What does your DAC sound like
@mitch2 I just read that you now have a Aries-Cerat Helene.  I surprised that you have switched from the Mojo Audio DAC's.  Although you said that the Helene is better can you tell me if the Mystique X SE sounds similar?  
Ayre QX-5 Twenty
@phastm3 I was reading the post above where you said the QX-5 twenty is your favorite DAC.  This was a few years back when you posted.  Do you still stand by that or have you found something better?  Do you use the built in streamer?  I am curious... 
What does your DAC sound like
@dwest1023 So you prefer the Holo May over the Terminator Plus.  Do you use any filters or run it in NOS?  What type of streamer do you use?  
What does your DAC sound like
@mitch2 Just read your post from yesterday.  I don't know how long you have had your new Mojo DAC but have you noticed a difference from the X SE.  From the website I read their where a few changes and some seem more for protection.  Also you said...

Audio Mirror Tubadour VI DAC
@kray Are you still using an Audio Mirror DAC?  Do you have any pictures of any of the DACs?  I have looked online and there isn't much but a few from older versions.  I just want to see the build quality.  
innuos pulse compared to denafrips gaia 12th
@sns What good streamers come with I2s?  
innuos pulse compared to denafrips gaia 12th
@fthompson251 Instead of a streamer one idea is to run a computer and TV through the gaia12th  with  TOSLINK for the TV and USB for the computer.  I  think the Gaia would clean up the signal for both but not sure if the sound will be as good as a ... 
Audio Mirror Tubadour VI DAC
@mooch2000 @baylinor @jayctoy WOW I just received an email from Vlad and I was under the impression that the Tubadour VI was the Wave DAC but they are 2 different DAC's.  I wish Vlad would put some info about these DAC's on his website or online s... 
Audio Mirror Tubadour VI DAC
@mooch2000 I have been waiting to see the new DAC on the website.  I read your post a few times and am still not sure if Vlad can upgrade an old DAC and Chssis or Do you have to purchase a new DAC and Chassis?  
Audio Mirror Tubadour Vs. Lampizator
@hilde45 The price drops significantly on the older models.  Just from what I have read they become less and less tubey or romantic is what one poster said as you move up to the newer models.  I would love to hear them buy hanvn't.  I would also l...
