Aero DAC by Linear Tube Audio - experience

I am looking for other Audiogoners input and feedback.  Feedback from people that tried it and bought something else after trying it.  As well as Audiogoners that bought it and use it.

I have read it is fantastic value, compare to Audio Note 4.1.  My impression it is a wonderful to have a tube dac with a streaming service as it creates a nice warm analog like sound to digital input.

Thank you!!!

It should be noted that mitch2 only tried the stock tubes in the Aero dac which were not anything special if I recall.  I recently heard this dac with Ray Reserve tubes and it sounds excellent.

Regarding what @stuartk said about @mitch2 's DAC comparison above... lots of stuff to wade through. Also, IMHO nothing wrong with coming here to ask a question directly. To me, that's really the added value of having a forum like this.

At any rate, you can save yourself the hassle of wading through that thread and go to the relevant section that discusses the LTA Aero DAC on Page 3. FWIW, I plan on picking one up as funds allow. 

All the best, and Happy Listening!
