Does boulder only have one dac?
Does boulder only have one dac? It's sounds and looks beautiful, and out of my budget for my office system.

This unit should trigger some conversation when people come by your office. |

Sort of deceiving in appearance when looking at the rear -- it's a 4 chassis design (left and right analogue, user interface and power supply) which helps it reach $65K retail. Pretty though.
Best Sirs, Bob

If you put that in your office I’d love to see how you top it in your home system.

Can't be done, not with my limited knowledge. I'd need the help of Dan and/or MasterLu.

One of my design favourites. I’ve never heard one though. Wonder how it would stack against the MSB Reference Dac or Select Dac. I’ve heard the Select at it remains the best I’ve ever heard so far. |

Especially if it one of your hourly employees and you get around to discussing the cost.
