Schiit Modius Dac.... one should be suspicious with such a name ! AK4493... hummmm, all the money went in the nice metal case and the symetric output to look pro !
Schiit went through some early growing pains, but it's all made in USA by well-known designers and still repairable (mostly). Only question is original Modius A (AK4493) or Modius E (latest model w ES9028).

Too much Marvel Comics for I ! Two good little chips, certainly the AKM is easier to get rigth at this price. Don't expect springfull bifrost rainbow sound at this price though. Do you need high resolution ?
Do you need high resolution ?
No. Just high enough to play a CD...
