[QUOTE="xenithon, post: 33244, member: 467"] I would personally not limited myself to locally available kit, especially DAC's. There are no moving parts, and the worst thing I have had was a blown fuse (a friend connected it to a DC power supply instead of an AC supply :p ). That said, the fact that the Apogee is local is a plus. It only has balanced analog outs but when I had it I got some Neutrik XLR/RCA adaptors which did the trick. The nice thing with the Apogee (and many other DACs) is that, because they run off a small power supply, you can use them with a battery which is a very nice improvement (I used mine with a 12V 5Ah SLA battery).
