LAIV Harmony Dac 

@starboard I could not use a warm DAC with your 2 Luxman pieces. Though some people like that.

Congrats on that gear. After a recent demo. I have my eyes on a m10x in my distant future. The 3 DACs that I will use with the m10x are the 

• Schitt Yggi+ OG (not available anymore, the MIB is the replacement)
• Schitt Yggi+ LIM
• Benchmark DAC3B

I know these 3 will work well with the m10x because they work well with the CODA #16 that I have. The LIM DAC is the warmest of the trio and it is at the border of acceptability for me with the CODA #16. I 'upgraded" to the neutral OG for the warm CODA #16 amp and love it. Most people would likely choose the LIM given those 3 options.

Bricasti.

I use a Denafrips Terminator 2 with my Luxman 509x and Dali Epicon 8 speakers.  Absolutely delightful.

JefferyW and rsf507, what model Bricasti dacs are you using?

thanks for your input

+3 Bricasti, I am using the Bricasti M21 DAC.  

@starboard Bricasti M3

I had the exact same amp/pre and I went on the hunt for a DAC recently. 

You can see the journey here:

I ended up selling the C-10x and spending the money on a better DAC as that made a larger impact on the sound. 

Thanks all for your suggestions !!!
