a few nights out the bar and some dumb crap on ebay and thats it so i could have gotten it if i wanted.ĮDIT: THEY EL DAC AND MIMBY COST THE SAME, I AM FULL OF crap. im sure theres people out there where its worth it to buy el dac, but the sheer value of the schiit stack vs el stack and given the gear i have, i got the schiit stack. also for 32bit, i decided theres not enough support for me to justify it. and if thats the case, then in everyday usage and music enjoyment, there's not a chance im going to notice at all, and i have hunch thats how it is for most people out there past a couple hundred dollars and much of discussion about dacs and whatnot is smoke and mirrors ad placebo or only applies if they're really trying hard to tell the difference instead of practical usage/enjoyment.

to be perfectly honest, am i personally going to notice the difference between 24 bit vs 32 bit or the very slight differences in jitter? no way, and from what i read on the people that can, they have to really be trying with multiple intense A/B tests to discern it. for the price of just the el dac i can almost get the entire schiit stack. i reaaallllyyy wanted a reason to get the el stack and found myself trying damn hard to rationalize the purchase (mostly because a e s t h e t i c and #DAT #KNOB #THO), but the marginal benefit was just far too little for me.

OP here, i actually went with the schiit stack (magni 3 and modi multibit).
