ARC DAC3 - tube rolling

I just discovered some info on the ARC DAC3. Has anyone here tube rolled this?

I have an LS5/II that benefits hugely from tube rolling. The DAC3 is supposed to use the LS5 derived topology.

The criticisms of the DAC 3 are soft bass and less treble extension. Sounds exactly like what Siemens tubes fixed on the LS5.

This might be an interesting alternative to the $2500 CDP question I posed. It'd be cheaper and some money could be spent on cap upgrades too. I already have a mountain of tubes to try.

Or, has time and technology just passed this by?

Samir.
