Hi RGA
Yes, I read that Review. I think the DAC 2.1 kit is a very early model, (the current model is updated and improved). And I think it can be synergy of the rest of the system. The early 2.1 AN DACs do need a high ohm load in a pre amp, or it can sound thin.

I have found thus far, that the AN DACs sound very organic and none fatiguing. And good tubes further boost the sound.

I wish myself that I could find an SS DAC that could have the same quality of sound and sonic signature, and thus would remove the hassles of tube replacement and generation of heat.

I would love to hear the factory DAC 4 or 5 models, just to hear how much further up the music chain they really are. A pipe dream for me but hey, you can imagine!
Live long and listen!
