Two SA-250s? Are you MAD? LOL.

No, but I have just finished upgrading my SA-250/IV to an SA-Reference, and the M-16p to a Tautoro.

More clarity, sparkle, and finesses -- with the same subterranean bass control. Love that Plinius gear!

Honestly, they both work fine. I think the Maple have a better bang for your buck.

But right now, I'm quite enamored of Battle Rock Studios and their really great Myrtle plinths. Cheaper than the Mapleshade and much, much better looking.

Sorry this took so long, but the Alpha DAC is one extremely fine DAC. LOVE it.
