Why hasnt yamamoto A-o11 gotten more love?

Hifly,
Three months! well it seems it was worth the wait. I`ve ordered a Yamamoto YDA 01 dac about 7 weeks ago(by all accounts a fabulous component). I hope I`ll be as pleased as you are when it finally gets here(hope it does`nt take 3 months however).

La45,
I will let you know my impressions once I get this unit and put some hours on it.

Brawny, I`ll take my chance with a company that has multiple rave reviews on numerous components by a variety of reviewers and current owners based on it`sonics. Even the unit that measured poorly per stereophile sounded superb according to Art Dudley who actually LISTENED to it. So if it sounds wonderful but measures bad then the hell with the measurements.

Hi LA45
After about 8 weeks my Yamamoto YDA-01 DAC arrived today, well packed and in flawless condition. Right out of the FEDX box it really sounds very good! I may be in for quite a treat once it`s fully burned in. Flash impressions after only a few hours of listening, it`s very transparent, dynamic,fast and has a pure liquid-organic tonality. It only about 12 pounds but it has a big sound with authority and presence. It seems that MR.Ebaen of 6moons nailed it with his detailed review and subsequent comparisons to other high end CD players. I`m using a PS Audio PW transport, this is a good combination.
