Gotta be careful with these pics guys. a lot of people are browsing these forums at work and many places of employment have a zero tolerance policy with it comes to NSFW pics

I agree with this sentiment
Thank you!
Photography is a fun hobby. I go a little over board when I’m snapping gear pic’s, but I enjoy it.

If the D90 is truly any cleaner than the DX7s was, I couldn’t put into words what’s different. Nevertheless, there’s something subtly more pleasing about it. Maybe it’s simply peace of mind knowing that SINAD is a good deal cleaner. Or some AKM flavor in the filters. It’s just smooth and perfect.
I’ve also got an RME ADI-2 DAC at home that I’ve used with my loudspeaker system and Stax. That’s also utterly transparent. The D90 measures somewhat cleaner, but I’m not convinced I could hear the difference. The RME is already a step up from DX7s.
All of these are exceptional DACs. In the case of the DX7s, pairing it with a THX amp did make a notable difference over using the built-in balanced output. The bass from the THX amp seemed tighter and more impactful.
Awesome, the D90 looks like a endgame dac to me
Current and possible portable endgame
It’s a bit hard to believe that the second picture is a combined MSRP of about $2800
There are IEMs that exist out there for about 2x that price by themselves

This is why I ended up not returning the D90. Did it sound different than my previous, already very good DAC? No! Is it an “endgame” DAC in terms of absolutely, positively, without a doubt distortion-and-noise-free digital decoding? Heck yeah!

That’s so sexy…
I just realized how similar but not, our set-ups are. I bet those sound every bit as good as my falcons and better because they output lower. Congratulations!
