Thanks! That's THE reply. Helpful stuff to navigate the choices.
Okay, then. If the Schiit Lyr 3+MultiBit DAC board vs the Valhalla 2+Modi MultiBit DAC is the choice (the former is about $50 more than the latter), the DACs are the same, then is there anything to consider between the Lyr 3 and the Valhalla 2? The tube types and implementation are different between them. The Lyr 3 offers a bit more power. Sonics?
The one-box and one-tube Lyr 3 could be a bit more convenient and a bit tidier solution. I like the 6SN7 tube and I have a large selection of them. I also have a nice selection of 6DJ8s, 6922s, 7308s, etc. So, I do some rolling.
How do you like the Wyrd? I am using a laptop to serve music, connecting with both USB and S/PDIF.
