Experience with Metrum Octave DAC

Vic,

Thanks for the input. I've been in touch with Steve and think very highly of him. Wasn't aware of the Syncro - great news!

Have you been able to test for differences in sound between using the internal SBT DAC vs. SBT>SPDIF cable>Octave?

Lewinskih, nada, I'm still at least six weeks out to receiving the Octave.

I saw an ad on here from the Canadian agent for a new one and assumed it would be a more or less permanent offer. It isn't up anymore so ??? You might get his address from the Metrum site. Still waiting on mine.

This disables all other outputs but they can be easily restored by resetting.

Got mine last week. It is currently burning in.
