I just purchased the DSD DAC and have just over a weeks time of continuous play on it. So far I am very impressed with the DSD DAC as it breaks in.
The Zenith Mk iii is on my list as an upgrade from my Mac Mini. I heard the Zenith Mk III with the Phoenix USB reclocker at RMAF. The difference with it was impressive. The Matrix may also be a great option to convert USB to IS2. I’d be interested in the results you get should you pursue the Matrix. I’m trying to sort this out at the moment considering Curious Cable direct to the DSD DAC or Phoenix, to USB, or possibly a Matrix with Linear Power Supply. I’d rather not do the latter as I don’t want a lot of interfacing boxes to get an improvement. That said the Phoenix is rather pricey at $3,150. A Matrix could be a great value option even with an LPS.
BTW, there is a thread on the PS Audio Forum that shares experiences of those who recently purchased a DSD DAC. You may want to share your experience as well at::
