I owned the DA-06 for a few years and loved it! Detailed presentation, but very smooth, never fatiguing and always musical. Operated flawlessly.
However, I recommend against buying/using the PS Audio Memory Player as I found it to be highly over-rated and the SQ was poor. I wanted to like their transport, but was very disappointed.
You would be better off pairing the Luxman DA-06 with a reputable music server. The Bluesound Vault 2 is a good value and provides a lot of flexibility.
I only sold my DA-06 DAC because of a unique opportunity to acquire a new old stock Audio Aero Reference CDP + DAC at a good price. If/when I buy another DAC down the road, the DA-06 will be on my short list. I feel like it flies under the radar compared to many of the flavor of the month DAC's that come and go.
