Six DAC Comparison
@mitch2 Out of curiosity what DAC's have you had in the past before the six DAC's you are comparing.  I know you have said you love the Mojo Audio and SMc DAC's. What other DAC's have they bested.    
First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship
@mitch2  Which of these DAC's have you heard?  I noticed you are doing a comparison in another thread with the Aero how is that coming along?  Is the Aero able to compete with the other DAC's?  
Looking at these specific preamps give me your opinions
@jaytor You say you have heard the Raven.  Did it have tube sound?  What was your thoughts on soundstage etc.  Was  it matched with a tube amp?

I am leaning towards the Raven.  
Review on Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC
Can anyone speak for the quality of the components in the AERO DAC.  I have seen the inside but am not able to tell the quality of components.

I am leaning towards the revelation.  I would love to see someone review it.

@mitch2 How does the internals of the SMc Audio compare to the Mojo Audio.   I know the chips are different but how does everything else compare?  Chokes, Capacitors, Power Supply etc.     
Mojo Audio - Mystique Y NC DAC
@mitch2 Just checking in on your New Mojo DAC compared to the old one.  I called Mojo Audio yesterday and was talking to Benjamin about some of his DAC's.  How did you get the Z chip?  I thought he had already sold all his stock.  
Spatial Audio Raven Preamp
@donsachs @lynn_olson I have been looking at maybe purchasing the  preamp for a couple months and have a few questions. I have a nice SS state amp but it is not balanced or have zero feedback.  What will be the benefit of the Raven Preamp if  the ... 
Simple device for downsampling?
Mitch which DAC do you prefer the most.  The SMC DAC2 or the Mojo Mystique?  
Simple device for downsampling?
Mitch2 I am following up on your findings.  I am very curious of the outcome.  
Simple device for downsampling?
Mitch are you still using your other SMc equipment?  If you are can you tell me about it?  When you had it built and what they did"?  
Simple device for downsampling?
I am excited to see your findings especially with the SMc DAC2.  I had Patrick update a DNA.5 a few months ago and he mentioned a new DAC2 he  built and that it may not be able to process the bit rate as the new DAC's but  it was the best DAC he h...
