    esteemed colleagues, this xDSD with IEMatch is superb with Andromeda. and straight up with Polaris, other IEMs and Clear.
    a great unit for transportable and desk use. give it a run!

    This actually looks like an interesting box. While I normally take iFi's claims with a large pinch of salt, they claim "multibit"- what's the DAC?

    I'm interested if you'll have an acquaintance like me. I have an iDSD Micro BL that I can compare it to.

    I'm in Chicago.

    I’ll setup up a loaner list tomorrow then. I really want to hear this too, which isn’t very common from me. I don’t see Burr-Brown DACs too often.

    @jexby Start the tour in SoCal for the meet next weekend and I'll loan you some Auteurs?


    ...I'll loan them to you either way, just a thought.

    let's please close submissions now.

    @Vansen can you start a sticky Post 1 in this thread with the official list of Friends?
    order should begin with local CO peeps:

    1. @Elnrik
    2. @E_Schaaf
    (then organize the rest by state, Cali, etc.)

    once returned to me, will hand off to
    @zerodeefex
    during expensive lunch for final impressions.

    Correct me if I am wrong, but I think anything above 1704 is hybrid multibit. 1704 was thier last all out MB.
