It is a good suggestion. Let me research it.
(usually I just hit alt-left arrow to return but that does not reduce the list by the thread I just read).
That is certainly a good workaround.I put a link to new posts here:
Yes, we had discussions about it and I have expressed strong desire to review it. https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/bargain-dac-suggestions.1381/page-21You might want to take a look at Pro-Ject Pre Box S2.

There is new "budget" Mytek, for 995 USD. https://mytekdigital.com/hifi/products/liberty-dac/. Could be interesting to measure.
External Power Supply Options
Mytek Liberty DAC (also Brooklyn DAC and ADC) is equipped with external 12VDC power supply input. There is some sound quality improvement (particularly deeper base and better soundstage) when a large external power supply is used. To have an effect the power supply has to be substantially (5-10 times) larger than the 30W internal power supply. Here are some option which have been used by ur customers. Mytek has not yet conducted testing of either of these.
Pretty expensive for "yet another little DAC."There is new "budget" Mytek, for 995 USD. https://mytekdigital.com/hifi/products/liberty-dac/. Could be interesting to measure.
That's like asking me about the ending of a new movie.Any preview on the Schiit Yggdrasil results?
Are we there yet daddy, huh, huh, are we there yet.That's like asking me about the ending of a new movie.So I will be vague. It is not nearly as bad as their other products I have reviewed.

'Not nearly as bad' ranges from 'still quite bad' to 'optimal and bug-free', so don't get ahead of yourself, you could still price the optimal code at the 6000$ tier or so.That's wonderful. Perhaps I should follow a similar pricing model for the code I write with different tiers - For $2500 I will write one function that is bug-free and performance is optimal.
