Last month I thought the XDA-2 was very tempting at $299, but for $249?!

I was using my Schiit Bifrost in my main system, but the relays were constantly clicking and it was driving me nuts. The clicking is a known issue and is mentioned on their FAQ page. It doesn't click at all when using the TOSLINK out from my computer so that's its new home. The XDA-2 will replace the V-DAC II in my main system. While I like the V-DAC II, it just doesn't have the weight/fullness of the Bifrost.
I'll try it both as a DAC and a digital preamp and see how I like it best. Man, I sure hope I don't have any problems with this thing. :sigh:
