[QUOTE="DevillEars, post: 20333"] Gert, It just may not be that "seriously a niche product" after all... One of the buying criteria tends to be "can I have a 'one-brand system'?" and both AV and VA have a gap in their range when it comes to a source component. Also, depending on how you approach this exercise, you CAN add some flexibility in terms of configuration: a) Stand-alone DAC (eg GedDAC) b) Stand-alone CDT (GerCDT???) c) Integrated CDP (GerCDP?????) Both AV and VA have the amplification and AV has already indicated that he would be keen to add a source component to his range. Both also have access to case manufacturers and can probably 'gyppo' an existing case for any of the three options. Both also have access to power supply designs that could be adapted. Both also have the skills to handle the analogue output stage requirements. This seems to me like an ideal opportunity for co-operative development as the addition of a digital source component would complete both product ranges and enable buyers to go for a local 'one-brand system'...
