Schitt has 38 Bifrost multibit dacs listed for $349 in closeout....

I paid $600 for mine!! It has Gen 5 USB and will be able to be upgraded to Unison next year....I have a beta board in mine...

Its an excellent choice if your looking for a MB dac at a great price!

Just because its "last years model" (metaphor)...doesnt mean it doesnt work well!!

Get a Magni 3 and a pair of the excellent Beyer Amiron Home open-back headphones. At $387 they're a steal. With a $59 Magni you'd have a killer setup at less than $450. IMHO these competed well against the Focal Elears. These replaced my long owned HD650s. Good as those were, I never plugged them in again after getting the Amirons.

SMSL SP200 headphone amp.

Not really on sale, but at $260 currently at places like Amazon and reportedly pretty close in performance to something like $3000 Benchmark HPA4, I just ordered one.  Same THX technology as Massdrop THX 789, which is more expensive and less available.

Certainly this not a bargain, a curious HifiMan release>
a new closed planar HP with hi sensitivity 100dB at 30Ω
the cans are real wood, copy from Sony R10 (1990s).

Hifiman baffles me as a company.  Copy only the outside design (big wooden cups) of an old legend, use a completely different driver design (planar vs Sony's bio-cellulose), call it ostensibly HE-R10, then sell it for $5500.   :scratch:

Still cheaper than a legit OG R-10, which sells for $14K if you can find one :o

Haven't seen a headphone that ugly since the Koss Pro-4AA

FRM in the interest of transparency, are you a Hifiman stockholder or something?

No but I visit its site regularly to look for offers(no luck so far) Iam no even a site reviewer that receive equip on ''long term'' loan.

If you are a handy DIY you can even make your own R10 clone.
In the 1990s Sony overwhelmed us the cups were from a 200 year old rare tree tourned out cost only 31Yuan or $4.75usd.
