Emm Labs DV2

If any of my audio brethren are thinking of upgrading their current dac I would highly recommend the Emm Labs DV2. If your looking for a dac that only presents the music and doesn't add color or some other sonic flavour this may be the last dac you will ever have to purchase. For almost 2 years I used the PS Audio DSD. It's a very good dac however the DV2 is in another league. This quest for achieving the right SQ in one's system can be fun and sometimes maddening! (In a good way) When you do achieve your goal it really is satisfying.

No worries.  We've just had a couple of ridiculous people in the past and so everyone is now sensitive to it.  Based on my experience, it's a great brand (at the very least for digital - I haven't tried their amps) and wish you success.

Thanks man, their current amps are beasts. Too much power for my JA Pearl 20/20s.

^^^ I believe EMM Labs currently working on a stereo version of their flagship mono amps. It will be interesting to see what would be entry price point

Bottom line, its a great Dac. Whether its the DA2 or the DV2. I'm using my DV2 with Gryphon Mephisto/Pandora Preamp and couldn't be more pleased. Would the DA2 with my rig sound any better? Maybe? I doubt with my back to the gear if one could accurately detect DV2/DA2 from the other.
