The 777 is a tube DAC. I do have a tube amp, so I do not need the "infusion of happy vibes" a tube might give you with SS gear.
I am a sucker for a "mellow" sound - and with my tube amp and the Metrum Octave I had before I already got me there.
The Amethyst just added more bass and "grunt" - letting the Octave sounding a wee bit dreamy - and the Amethyst more "real".
I am a happy camper with 24bit / 48khz and even redbook sounds "analog enough" - warm and bassy that is now.
