I'm also pretty interested to hear how the upgrade(s) improve the sound.
Most of my digital songs are lossless AIFF CD rips, so the higher resolution won't likely make a difference to me. Would I expect to "hear" a major difference in my setup (currently my DAC2 is the DAC/Preamp in my system)? Way to go W4S in including an upgradeable solution! Almost unheard of in today's digital world.

Ken.......The Wyred 4 Sound DAC2 SE actually does one-up the D100 with the ESS 9018 DAC versus the D100's ESS 9016 DAC, and the DAC2 SE raises the bar with its new DSD capability.

Maks. I'm sure glad you sold it! It's fitting very nicely into my system. Thanks again for a smooth transaction.

It's quite possible, but I am very happy with my D100 and have no regrets. One thing I really liked about the DAC-2 was the future upgrade path and it's nice to see they've lived up to that promise. I haven't listened to many other DACs, but I really believe it'd be hard to beat the DAC-2 in that price range. It certainly beat the pants off the DAC in my MX135, that's for sure.

What about DAC1 owners? Any upgrades in the future that anyone knows of?
