One of the reasons I struggle with this site is old as dirt topics appear at the top of the forum - yikes.Saying this while responding to a 5 years+ old post ?...
Was certainly the case at the time with smaller motors and in EU.

What no, what do you mean only a component in the system, the shop said I could try them on. They also put events once a year for people to try HE-1 and those are like $40,000 headphones lol. They are openly inviting me to try the Yamaha so I’m gonna spend a few hours there next week. Make my time well worth it. They even told me to bring my own music but in any case picture will be worth thousand words so stay tuned for photos as I chill there with expensive headphones muhahahaYou won’t be listening to it, but it will be a component in the system.

By now, the prevailing view on this should be evident.I mean are you guys telling me that my nagra is a waste of money?
You saying that because you can’t try it? I’m not buying it anyway but This won’t prevent me from trying it though it could be fun.The Yamaha flagship was mostly a flop. Too expensive in a very competitive market.
This response I like. Honestly because I am only 1 hour away from that shop, and they have mostly high-end audio and don't care if customers try it, I think I am gonna spend my time in the city with that, it's not like I drink or smoke anyway. So Audio it is lol.I would try everything, just be aware there are measurement led products based on solid engineering and then their are ‘pride of ownership’ products which almost certainly won’t be technically or in terms of sound quality but better will have caché and a nice case/enclosure.
You have to decide which is right for you.

I can't take you seriously because of the constant "lol"This response I like.

Bravo !It is interesting to note that the dominant aspect of the quality of both the Stellavox and Nagra product was their mechanical build quality. Nagra's electronics were competent rather than exemplary. Now there's a contentious comment
But it's a fact that the creation of a decent analogue tape recorder was more an exercise in mechanical engineering than electrical. Not a lot of people know that
About me being a troll or wanting to learn, is it too much to be both?
Im saying because it had little to no impact in the headphone world. I cant try the DCA E3, but it has been a success, considered by many the best closed planar by far. And waaay less than the Yamaha.You saying that because you can’t try it? I’m not buying it anyway but This won’t prevent me from trying it though it could be fun.
A Mercedes does come with a dac chip, maybe Amir should test one? Who will drop ship..?Yep, saw that yesterday...
But let be realistic : @amirm will never get his hands on this. First and obvious reason: same price as a brand new, full option, Mercedes E Class.
Second, there is not any owner (or store) on this earth that will risk to see a potential review where this would measure the same as a 100$ Tone Board. But maybe, I'm wrong.
Anyway, here are the official (and unacceptably poor) tech specs of the predecessor, the HD DAC... I don't see anything stellar (or should worth 30K€):
I was laughing so hard, I fell off the dining room chair.I agree with Blumlein, for that kind of money I want atleast DSD x8192. It it well known fact that after the samplerate exceeds 69 krungavoltrons per linear hexibyte, the spontaneus quasi-modal positron emission occurs in the conductor but only if it is made from 99.9999% + pure cryo silver. This will prevent the time smearing resonance due to heterodyne electron tunneling into the 12th compacted dimension through parasitic flow that happens inside Yau Calabi manifolds.
