Curious what you find with it! What dac will it feed?

Sonic frontiers processors 3
,initial impression is that while it didnt change the current signature, it does give most tracks more air so each instruments got more space for their own. I still need to wrap my head around it but so far it makes p3 resolves even better while remaining effortless.

I need to borrow another dac for a comparison and more listening time, Chirs (of part connexion) told me that p3’s owner dried up the unit’s supply and i kinda understand why.

Chris had expressed to me that the D2D is largely obsolete in today's market with decent USB/SPDIF converters and that they try to stockpile them for testing purposes. Interesting!

I still think Eitr is much morre easier but i cant help getting curious about that particular connector.
The good thing is that while d2d is very hard to find, the price is not too bad (150$-ish for my case).

I have the assemblage 3.1 fed by eitr but it also takes i2s via the massive connector. Long story but I had a d2d-1 for all of a few days, was kinda neat but alas never meant to be. Too bad they didnt include st optical output on the d2d. Do you think it competes with the eitr SQ wise?

I2se gives p3 better technicality imo but eitr comes pretty close with smaller footprint, please keep in mind that i didnt send p3 in for se+ mod yet, hell , if i ever gonna ship that beast there i will be better of go grab yggyA2 instead lol.
