Need DAC Ideas


Some of you have heard many different DACs and can help me
put together the best possible line up of DACs from $1.8 to $3.9k.

In order for the comparison to be of maximum value I need to hear
only from those who have had some direct comparison experience.

There are probably 30 companies offering a product in this range. 
I am looking for musicality and value as opposed to say the last word
in accuracy.

Some Possibles:

1. Line Magnetic  $2.2
2. Audio Mirror Tubadour 3 $1.9 
3. Denafrips Pontus $1.8
4. Holo Audio  Spring 3 $2.8
5. Doge 7 $2.3
6. Wired for Sound 2V2  $2.5.
7. Audio Note (kit) 4.1X $3.8
8. Lampizator Amber $3.5 
9. Schiit Yggy $2.5

Once the top 8-10 are identified and gathered there will be an
opportunity for anyone interested to sit in on the comparison. 

Please respond with your brand experience.
JJSS in particular.

Thank you

what is the rest of your system?

you need to say more about the sound you are looking for...

of your list above i had only had and heard 4 of the 9... but i have been through quite a few others, several of which to me represent superior 'value'

i don’t know what accuracy is, but i know what sounds good to me
@chorus

jjss- Please give me the names/models of the others
you found to be superior and which you were comparing them
to.
