AURALiC VEGA Digital Preamp and DAC (32-Bit, 384kHz, DSD/DXD)

General:Very capable DAC from AURALiC which they refer to officially as a digital audio processor. Originally sold for $3,499 several years back! Offers 32-Bit, 384kHz decoding, plus DSD64 (2.8224MHz), DSD128 (5.6448MHz), and DXD file format capability. Tested in our lab and working perfectly. The caseworks is overall clean, knobs are responsive, but note that the OLED display has some burn-in from being on too long. It's still very readable, and changed the display to stay on auto-dim so it doesn't get any worse over time.
