Not a chance! This `digital stuff' all very virtual and synthetic only.  whistling.gif

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.

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. blush.gif

So, is this little DAC any good?

BTW don't forget to bring along at least one of your tube preamps, okay? Since this DAC got no volume control if hooked up to my TA022.....mati lah my speakers.

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.
