QUOTE(March05 @ Jan 22 2011, 06:20 PM) Not a chance! This `digital stuff' all very virtual and synthetic only. Actually, I was looking for a casing for my still bare TA 2022 amp, wondering if chchyong89 got something suitable for me. So I just drop in for a look see lah. that is so long time ago. still haven't finish yet...?

Yalah, I'm just not cut out to be a DIYer, I guess. Anyway, I did finish getting the TA2024 cased more than a year ago, but finding a big enough case for the older twin pair of TA2022s is a little bit harder. Not that I looked very hard, I have to admit. So, is this little DAC any good?

Is this DAC designed for certain genre of music? If yes, what's the genre? Thanks~

I don't think it'll make any genre sound bad. Although it is coloured, it is quite balanced all around. I listen to classical, metal, rock, prog-rock, nu-prog, alt. metal, indie, and they all sound good.
Although I would add, because it has quite a strong mid-freq presence, vocals sound good on it.
