Wyred Dacs--Thoughts?

The new Wyred dacs employing the Sabre dac chips have, as I understand things, been shipping. If any of you have had the opportunity to get your hands on one and listen to it in your system or a familiar one, I would appreciate your thoughts.
Thanks.

I'm wondering if the Wyred DAC-1 would be a substantial upgrade over the DacMagic? or just an incremental upgrade?
Erikminer - Please keep us posted on your findings over the DacMagic.

The DAC-1 would definitely be an upgrade in transparency and dynamics, I've owned both.

I'm interested in hearing about the quality of the volume control built into the Wyred DAC-2. Specifically, its effect on sound quality. Also, how do you like the user interface and configuration? Any quirks or shortcomings?
