MSB Analog DAC experience

I am considering the MSB Analog DAC to add computer audio and streaming to my system. I demo'd an MSB and am pretty impressed. I would like anyone's experience concerning need for volume control, I plan of keeping my preamp, upgraded power supply etc. Thanks.

thank all for your input. I am going from primarily an analog set up to computer audio due to space constraints. I went ahead and ordered an Analog DAC with volume and upgrade power supply. We'll see how it goes.

Davt, did you receive your Analog DAC? How do you like it?

Stickman451, yes, I did get the MSB Analog DAC and like it a lot. I got it with the USB that was later upgraded to the new USB II for DSD x4 but mainly because it sounds better with the regular rebook as well downloads. I also got a Universal Media Transport Plus and run files through that to the Analog DAC. Running through the UMT+ sounds the best but I cannot do gapless that route so the upgrade in the USB for files that sound better gapless. My Herron M1A are a perfect match as well. Very happy.

I have heard someone prefer the aftermarket power supply compared to the power base, e.g. ben lau. does anyone know that teradak also makes LPS for the Analog dac ?
