Hi. Pretty much a 'noob' here. Want to look at a budget DAC. Thinking of selling my Modi Multibit and putting a few shekels back in my pocket. The Modi 3 is on my radar but, like so many Schiit designs, it seems to have an Achilles heel which in the Modi 3's case is USB performance. It's in the running, but because of that and the fact that (for the foreseeable future anyway) a USB-only DAC is all I need, I want to look at more options. Maybe leaving out switching helps keep cost down. And if there are multi-input DACs worth looking at for $150 or less, I'd check them out. So maybe that puts a few other units into play. Interested in recommendations as to what test reports/reviews here I should look at.
