The Six Moons.com review on the Mhdt Labs Orchid DAC just went up

I was looking around for a few months at DACs ..was pretty set on a denafrips pontus or ares..even sent an email out to get the purchase going but..I read the 6moons review and decided to pick it up
no regrets..great little dac....I'm a kinki ex-m1 owner also..
I appreciate teajays honest reviews...

Ok, i had a Prism Sound Callia DAC and decided to get the Orchid. The Orchid was comparable to the Callia (although the Callia is pricier) and i would say somewhat better sounding over the Callia although the Orchid does not have a headphone or volume control. Also, the Orchid does not upsample and is based on a single tube output. I do not regret the change especially since changing out the Phillips 1541 A for 1541 S1 single crown. The single crown S1 is richer, deeper bass, more depth, improved imaging, soundstage and clarity..    

Where does one get the single crown S1?

Where does one get the single crown S1?

Last I checked Ebay has some listings.

"mhdt Lab did pay 6Moons for this review. I own the Orchid, as well as Schitt Gumby, and PS Audio PWD Mark II."

I also own a PS Audio PWD Mark II. How would you discribe the differences between the Mark II and the Orchid?

I love most everything that the Mark II offers: detail, spaciousness, warmth, etc., but there is a little bit of hash around the vocals that I could do without.

So, I’m wondering.

Thanks
