$39K for the Linn Klimax DAC/streamer?

It has to be set up using a special service and there is no manual? I guess this for the very wealthy few who do not care about "gear." I would rather buy a car with this money, or part of a Porsche, and set up my own DAC/streamer. But Stephen Scarf at Absolute Sound says.."unquestionably the best combination DAC/streamer I've ever heard, bar none." Great hyperbole, may hold true for a month or two, then some other over-priced bit of kit comes along..

Consider donating that money to the needy.

Buy a Grace digital link for $179... and save $38,821

It streams, it works, it sounds nice......some people need serious help....

Combined with the musical fidelity V90 dac, and you got a budget streamer/dac that will sound better than anything near the price...and maybe 2 and three times....

Why? Just donate it to me. I'll take a lot better care of it..

The needy will always be needy.. It's just THEIR way of life.

Christ even said it.. I just added "It's just their way of life" I'm just not as forgiving as Christ..

Eventually we'll all benefit from the trickle down as today's SOTA improvements become available in more affordable equipment, e.g. elements of today's F1 racing technology will become standard safety features for family sedans and SUVs in 5-7 years
