AudioDoctor Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 In this case, I’m going to suggest a Schiit Freya+ preamp ran in active tube mode if you want a significant change in sound. No electron left behind. Link to comment

If you're dead set on a DAC upgrade, I would suggest a Schiit Gungnir Multibit and using a good digital volume control, carefully. No electron left behind. Link to comment

I’m surprised we don’t see more discussion about this, apart from use of discrete op amps rather than chips. Most? You think so? I believe this is true at the low end of the spectrum, but not much higher. No electron left behind. Link to comment
