DAVE w/ or w/out M Scaler?


DAVE alone or DAVE + M Scaler?

May I have the opinions of those with either configuration?

i currently run DAVE alone. Cheers and stay well

I'm curious about the Chord Hugo TT2 with and without the Scaler. I've been told it's amazing too.
tt2 benefits greatly from scaler as does qutest

dunno about dave, i don’t have one

I don’t believe in absolutes in audio, but in my system I prefer the Dave without the M-Scaler. In my opinion the Dave sounds "artificial" with the M-Scaler...in other words, something just didn’t sound right. I’m sorry I can’t provide a better description.
If you can, demo one.  I have one with my TT2 and love it.  Even with non-Chord DACs.
