I finally got around to ordering it. Delivery will be around the end of OCT. According to Frank it will elevate my 2 channel listening enjoyment to a whole new level. At present I am very delighted with my 2 channel performance. But I am always looking for ways to improve without having to take out a second mortgage on my house. LOL!! Hence the need & curiousity to try the Ultra DAC to hear what it will add. Frank is very confident in his products & offers a generous return policy. If it's anything like his OmegaStar 440EX amp that I own, I'm sure it's going to be a keeper. Only time will tell!!

Frank's going to be sharing a booth at RMAF 2006, so I'll stop by to say 'hi' and listen to his DAC.

Mr. Van Alstine designs and creates some sweet and killer amps!!
I love his Transcendence Eight Pre Amp and Fet Valve Ultra 350 & 550 amps. Along with my Butler Audio TDB 2250, they are my favorite amps.
I'm very curious to hear your impressions of the Ultra DAC.TonyComment

Let me preface this by saying that my 2 channel system before the addition of the Ultra DAC consisted of: Conrad Johnson PV14L tube preamp, Consonance CD120 player, Van Alstine OmegaStar 440EX amp, & AAD 2001 monitors. The musicality of the system was superb to put it mildly. I was extremely satisfied,... -

Anyone know anything about their designs and equipment?
I have some interest and I'm curious in their Fet Valve 550EXR Amplifier, OmegaStar 440EXH amplifier, Transcendence Seven Hybrid Tube Pre Amplifier and OmegaStar... -
Please note that this is a work in progress.
A couple of years ago, I started accumulating parts for a DAC build that would allow me to play back my collection of SACD rips.
I had been using a Logitech Touch with EDO app into a CEntrance DACmini.
