There are several options when choosing the Overdrive... Upgraded caps, Hynes Regs in different sections, and Steve has also done some grounding upgrades as well more recently.

Can you list what options this has?

I'm curious why you're selling.  I've been toying with stepping up to a dedicated DAC, but am happy with my Oppo for the time being.  The Empirical DAC seems to be a step above the Vega and a step or two below Lampizator?

The Overdrive is PCM only, so there is that... The Vega is no slouch, and I wouldn't place either of these 2 DAC's in a category.... They are both very good, and one could absolutely prefer either of these to a Lampizator.

I didn't realize that Overdrive doesn't do DSD.
