Re: "hearing" the Cary, I haven't found a dealer in CA yet. Cambridge Audio offers a very decently-priced unit but not DSD!
TBH, any mid-fi "all in one" DAC and network streamer would be fine by me.
All I require , irrational or not, is that it has RCA jacks. It would be very odd, (for me, anyway) to use the headphone out of the unit John recommends to connect to my amp!)
That said, seems like a very cool device.
