Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC
Chime in as suspicion grows ;-) I had bought what I thought was my keeper DAC, the mola mola tambaqui. Space, detail and tonal clarity like I’d not heard before. Then my business partner mentioned someone on here had mentioned the musetec out per... 
Fedex Customs problem
We send a lot of shipments to US from UK and FedEx are by far the most reliable and quickest service we’ve used. We also deal with returns and as long as you mark it for return or repair, with country of origin UK, then you should not pay any impo...
