Thanks for the update Shaun, I found the Vanguard a little more rounded here too although its better than the stock XO. Think I'm going to keep the Tent running the QA550 (nstead of divider with vanguard) and use the vanguard just with the 5102. Wouldn't mind trying the Salas +ve and mini thanks, I can send it you back after knocking it up and given it a go. Oh, I dug the hiface out, should really get that rigged up to this thing, I'm interested to know how it compares against the QA550 as a source Hi Leo I'm not saying that the Vanguard is a bad unit. far from it for the price it's very good but not a match for the Tent XO with this DAC. interestingly with the PK the differences seemed very small so horses (or should that be clocks) for courses. the Salas you are more than welcome to keep and it should allow you a good deal of flexibility with future projects. it's good for 30 or so volts at 1.5A so plenty of scope and will help stop that itch to pull one of your nice PH. any how I'd be interested to know how you get on with it. myself i like them PM me your address and I'll ship one out to you. you will need the build guide for the set up process which is available from DIYA or if you have a problem finding it let me know. take care

For the elcheapo dac its a good match to keep things cheap. Thanks again regarding the Salas, I'll pm soon as the comparing this to that is still fun

yes my thought exactly.
it's good to keep things in context price wise.
with the trident $30 the Vanguard makes for a good not to expensive unit.
I'll get the Salas packed up and ready.
take care
