Thoroughly "Touched" (long)

[E-Stat]

Good to hear about the DAC7; sorry to hear about the VTL. Hope you get the latter issue resolved soon.

I'll be contacting Bea today. She's helped me in the past.

I certainly covet the DAC7. And I like the specs for ARC's new 'DSPre' combo DAC + preamp.

There's another.

Reference DAC

It uses the output stage as the REF5. The idea of having a line stage enabled DAC makes a lot of sense.
