How much performance do you expect it to deliver (comaper to overdrive) and for what price?

I plan to offer the Hot Rod DAC at $1499.00 or less. It will have Off-Ramp 5 USB interface, good clocks and Hynes regs etc..
I dont expect it to beat Overdrive, but I expect it to be very close if both are comparing RCA outs and both are driving preamps.
It has some innovations that the Overdrive does not, including DC-coupled output (can't do this with my Overdrive Volume technology). Because it is not balanced in design, it will probably have a tad more compression than the Overdrive. It will use a newer D/A chip, probably the AD1955, so this may make up for that. It will use less expensive RCA connectors like the Synchro-Mesh.
