I assume you mean DAC-10H. Regardless, they are pretty expensive so I suggest dropping them a message telling them you like to see it reviewed here. Sometimes that gets them interested in sending in a loan unit.Nuprime HA10
I am on the lookout for one so hopefully one becomes available....I want to see Chord DAVE, I saw Stereophile measurements and it showed highest performance they ever measured. I think this might be the highest performing DAC currently in production.

Auralic Altair is in the same league of measurements with Chord Dave in Stereophile.I want to see Chord DAVE, I saw Stereophile measurements and it showed highest performance they ever measured. I think this might be the highest performing DAC currently in production.
How about TEAC UD301?
It's below USD300 and has balenced output.
Seems a good choice to pair with THX amp.
Why is the A45 cheaper than A35?

Hum... I owned the DAC-9 during 1 year (driving 2 STA-9 amps) and had a very bad experience about the USB Input. This is not at all "isolated" or such and take the 5V power from the computer.What about Nuprime DAC 9?

SINAD of the explrer around 90dB looks like :/ pretty average, around iFi nano level.Meridian Explorer 2, i have been using one two years and it sounds excellent with hifi-system (connected to pre amp).
It sounds really good with Oppo PM3's too. Sound is so good compared to other DACs i have tried i'd like to know where the difference comes from.
Stereophile did some measuring, but it would be interesting to see Amir's test results and compare it to other DACs.

Once I turned on my PC, I heard a very audible "pink noise" in my speakers. Even worse when my PC was loading or gaming (or use USB transfer to external hard drive), all of these electronics noises were audible via the DAC-9. Nothing to complain about SPDIF inputs, though. I end up by using a Aune X1S as an USB to COAX interface to solve the issue.
I would like to se this as well in measurements. Or maybe my unit was defective.
