    I'd be interested in hearing this DAC if there's time and space for me to be added, please. I'm in northern NJ. MacOS.

    If this is in any way a nuisance, I'd understand completely if it's too late for me to sign up. I also don't want to delay others who've been waiting patiently and I'd be more than happy to go last. Thanks for your patience, @rhythmdevils, with this late request.

    I'd have signed up sooner but I didn't have the chain to do this DAC justice until recently, and since I'm now on the LiM loaner tour, it would be great to have a point of comparison, as well as with my Bifrost 2.

    I'm interested in hearing this DAC if it's still possible. I'm based in Washington, DC, and my OS is LMS/PiCorePlayer. I could also play off of Windows 11.

    First time doing something like this on SBAF and a recent member (joined because of the Pi2AES and Mercury streamer), so let me know what info you need from me.

    Thank you!

    rec'd from @Josh Schor today, plugged in and playing music for the weekend while I move my daughter out of her dorm. Should be ready for a H2H cage match with Spring2KTE when I get to the office on Monday

    Bad news - returned from moving my daughter out with bad flu-like symptoms - today is the first day I feel semi-human. Due to a "breakout" of health issues, my company hard closed the office on Tuesday and won't reopen until the 16th.

    I will work towards getting the Spring3KTE out of the office and will simply ship it to the next person. I'll post an update here when that happens.

    I only had ears on it for about 15 minutes to confirm operation upon receiving... so I don't believe any thoughts or impressions would be helpful.

    Not your fault I still want you to get to hear it. Start your loaner period with the DAC after you get it from the office please. :)

    If I could be added to the list, I'd like to give this a listen.
