Is D for Dry? Class D...
Have had a couple of Class D systems in my office and I end up moving back to tubes. My main system is perfect for my ears, All Simaudio, customer for life. 
What’s a mistake you made by being impulsive?

Bricasti M3 vs. Holo Audio May vs. PS Audio DS
Look at Border Patrol and Simaudio. I have the 280D in my main system and really like it very transparent. I have the Border Patrol on my office system and it is very nice and affordable, much better than the DAC in the Node 2i we stream with.

Simaudio 260D Transport only use a stand alone DAC much better sound. Also the Audiolab 6000CDT is quite nice and very affordable and is a transport only.
