LAIV Harmony

@campo007 unfortunately for the group - no. But for me yes. 

No, this is all about you. You made an informed decision by going through the trouble of procuring and comparing. That was a smart move. I’m just surprised by how quickly you acted—it suggests that the disparity between Harmony and May is so obvious that it swayed your decision. Nevertheless, the outcome aligns with what I had researched before.  Congratulation.

It doesn't surprise me that a $5600 dac sounds better than a $2700 dac and a $1650 dac. 

These days you could not judge the SQ based on the price.  For example, Chord Dave that costs $14k, 2.5 times higher than May KTE, does it mean 2.5 times better.  Definitely nay.  Google it and you could see the reviews mixed...

I would agree with that.  The May KTE sounds like an end game dac for someone like me.  Something to think about for a possible upgrade.
