What is the interface like? Any screen grabs anywhere?

New guy looking to learn more about digital as I move into DSD files.

My main system is tubes (845 SET) and high efficiency horns (Altec/JBL). My pre is passive using auto-formers because I don't need any gain. -

Let's focus on the DAC first. I am thinking in the $1000 range but that may change, as I learn more about what I really need and what may be a want. I'm ok with taking small steps. No need to try and jump to the front of the pack. -

Good to know, as I'm in the market for additional storage. I will focus on a NAS with RAID1 to keep my music backed up. -

What do you think about the Musical Fidelity MX-DAC? Music Direct has it on sale for $799. -

So to start off, I have upgraded my laptop to a Toshiba that is faster and has USB3.0 for my external music drive. My friend brought over a Tascam DA-3000 recorder and we started ripping my reel to reel master tapes to DSD128 files. This now has me looking for a new DAC, as mine won't do DSD files. -
Hello all, I am a long time audio enthusiast. While I have spent a very long time in vinyl and tape, I only recently started down the digital road. I have been running JRiver 20 (just installed 21) with a Sony laptop and Windows 10. This feeds a Music Fidelity M1DAC. This has served me well but I have been spoiled since a friend came over with his EMM Labs Meitner DAC and some DSD files. Seems your always happy until you hear the next level.
