Chilly Brioschi:
Massdrop is putting out the SDAC-B.   (balanced DAC)
The specs. are, to say the least, impressive:

They expect to bill ya for it by the end of this month.

Hmmm.

...It'll kill me to wait, but I'm in.

I trust Grace Design from their history and Massdrop seems to be holding it together.
Expectation is a reference DAC that runs on USB and has great connectivity options.
I see it as a missing link in my tablet-based master system ahead of my integrated tube amp.

Chilly Brioschi:
Boom!
Hear that Drop?

Now what to feed it with? I guess that Tab via USB to start.
Where to point those Balanced Outs to?

I want a soft-clip power amp where I can roll Op Amps on the Pre side.

Ideas?

This is the first I'm seeing this.  Very interested!

What I really would love is for them to do a balanced version of this combo unit:
