| Still Looking for a DAC - Audio Mirror Tubadour v and ANK Audio 5.1 @hasmarto I know there’s a 5.1, but I don’t remember seeing a 6.1. But maybe hey snuck one by me.😁. Actually, there’s a 5.1 here on Agon. They’re asking $4000 for it. All the best. | |

| Mount Massive DirectStreamDAC MK2 Upgrade No, but if the reviews are good, I might be in the market for a new DAC. | |
