New, mid-price Schiitt Bifrost DAC on the way

[E-Stat]

So maybe I get some insight in to the virtues of discrete vs. opamp analog. I see the design has an RFI/EMF filter on the AC input which has to be a good thing.

Indeed. My current ARC DAC (also using JFETs) fares better than the op amp driven GamuT that preceded it.
