My Wadia 1000 x64 has been with me for 15 years and still creams any players and all the DACs I've heard (which isn't ALL the DACs) including Levinson, newer Wadias, Goldmund, and Sony. Haven't heard Meitner, Accuphase or Audio Logic.
I did improve its sound audibly by using the balanced outputs, and upgrading the glass digital cable and the power cord.
