I would be interested to hear how this DSD DAC compares with the NOS PCM based TotalDAC or Metrum Pavane DACs
LampizatOr Golden Gate
DACs with tubes (do you see a trend?). I very much enjoyed my time with the LampizatOr Lite-7 DAC (see review) because it made great strides away from sounding digital. The flagship balanced Golden Gate DAC ($19,800) pulls out all the stops designer Lukasz Fikus has up his sleeve (or most of them) and promises to go even further in that right direction. Watch out for an AudioStream review of the Golden Gate sometime soon-ish.

I have the Pavane and Musette in-barn for review.
