I’m a fan of DCS…and the LINA may very well be the all in one ENDGAME for those well healed enough to afford the $35k for the complete 3 pcs of the ensemble. Great review as always ☕️☕️

@FJLocHD or my Sen’s 650 😋

Chord Dave + M scaler, Nagra HD, Berkeley Alpha Reference 3, Lampizator Horizon, EMM DV2, Totaldac D1, Aries Cerat Kassandra 2, and Mola Mola Tambaqui would all be competitors to this with varying degrees of capability and price points.

I was looking at ... Esoteric N-05XD . I think this beautiful device is underrated.

So would the Lina be the top performer of all the mentioned, or is it another?

[@johnrus7661]

I recently had the pleasure to use the LINA system the other day with lots of high end stuff particularly the Focal Utopia. What an amazing experience, when you are not used to something that high end and experience it for the first time. I was trembling and had to hold back tears! It's truly insane what this thing does.

Is the master clock mainly to improve 44.1 and 48khz? Let’s say if I’m using usb thumb drive containing 96/192khz and DSD/DXD, is it still necessary to hv the master clock? The Lina amp got more than enough power for focal utopia 2022(audition on 2nd Nov).I’m more concern if Lina amp can fully utilise Abyss 1266. Pay a little extra can get Woo Audio WA33 base model😂 Thanks in advance

[@ABYSSHeadphones]

Both the Lina and WA33 amps are very good with AB1266. Really a question of how you prefer to listen. We own both, solves that problem. As for external clocks, music sounds better with it, more space and clarity to the source.

[@Benesyed]

I don't understand why you need a word clock if you just have a single headphone amp to sync

[@TipoF129B]

Can a clock from a different brand say denafrips interface with the dac?

[@SammerJammer]

Are those Abyss polo shirts for sale somewhere?

[@harackmw]

A DAC worth more than most people will spend on this hobby in a lifetime, lol 0:12
