Looking to get a great performing balanced DAC for desktop without MQA support, but unfortunately the review index does not have MQA as a tag to facilitate filtering. The last couple of initially impressive DACs (D90SE, X16) are marred by MQA support, so now I'm looking for alternatives from brands that do not sell MQA gear. This immediately eliminates anything by Topping, Gustard, SMSL, iFi and some others. Is there a comprehensive list of well performing gear by brands that do not support MQA?
PS: I'm aware of Schiit's stance on MQA, I commend them for it, I would get a Modius even, but I'm in EU and the EU Schiit site seems to be permanently OOS on all items (does everything instantly sell out the moment it comes in or do they never get any stock in the first place?).
