I thinkg these are already available in Singapore. I will try to see the pricing if it will be competetive enough including shipping door to door.

Abangan :)

Sir bigtime naman yung setup nyo, 0404 pa yung pangconnect sa dac-1 :)

Im still very interested with the dacmagic since its one of the cheapest dacs that gives an option for a balanced setup :)

Are these not yet available here in the PH? I really think this DAC needs a power supply upgrade ala Sigma.

Actually it does, it was suggested in head-case that the PSU can be improved, probably one of the compromises to bring the price down :) As to availability, I once called avesco but no one there seems to know the product, {weird} so I gave up on it :)
