I use a Gustard U12 into my Audio-gd Master 7's BNC input and I am pretty happy with it. I wouldn't mind trying the Empirical Audio Off Ramp as well, but I have a few more things that are higher priority in my audio chain.

Hi, the V-Link 192 is still readily available on Amazon for less than a hundred bucks. It's a cheap and fantastic solution.

Yes Zd, if I had the resources i also would like to try the Off-Ramp. But then again, I might also be upgrading my entire system.

I agree with David, if one was to spend ‘Off-Ramp’ type $$$ a newer DAC may be in order.

Not knowing more about Ramy’s budget, intent on use, and his/her system, it is hard to make a recommendation as to what might be ‘best’."

Take a look at the OP's system. It looks like he can easily afford the off ramp.
