I just got my new AVA Fet Valve DAC and it is FANTASTIC!
I played Led Zeppelin "Stairway to Heaven" from IV (definitive collection) and was amazed at the improvement. It was a night/day difference. Any harshness and brightness was gone. There was more thump to the bass. I could hear Robert Plant inhale before each line. Cymbals sound more detailed but not harsh.
The I played RUSH "Vital Signs" from Moving Pictures. The drums had a 3D effect that I never heard before.
I highly recommend this DAC!
