I went through the same search about 3 months ago. The Havana was at the top of my list but I got tired of waiting for one to show up used. While waiting for the perfect dac I kept seeing the PS Audio DL3 mentioned above pop up. I bought a new DL3 and could not be happier. As the first responder to your question said, it is hard to beat for the money.
Help with DAC Going nuts
I've been spending a great deal of time researching DACS. Much of it causes me to glaze over. I can't see myself going to a computer based system. For now I want to be able to stream internet radio. I've narrowed things down to a few brands. Wavelength Brick used, Paradisea Havana, maybe the new Rega. My intention is to buy and hold. I listen to a lot of acoustical/folk and female vocalists. System is tubed. I know that a thread like this often results in countless recommendations. I'll certainly welcome these but hopefully I'll hear from those who are familiar with the brands mentioned. Thank you in advance for your input.
