Morganc, I see that you do not mention the type of digital cable you are using. Reason why I ask is that I just demoed a Stereovox Ultra digital cable and it elevated my digital front end to very significant levels. Honestly, one of the most significant upgrades I've ever done.My Rega DAC really sound so good now.
Metrum Octave versus Eastern Electric DAC
I own an Eastern Electric DAC, the older one with volume control, no mods. Have any of you in the community compared these two units? Would I be better off doing the op amp upgrade, buy the newest EE with upgrades?
I have enjoyed the EE and like it well enough, but I am curious about the Metrum. I would like slightly more warmth, more fullness, a little more meat and bones, without losing any of the detail I now enjoy.
