New DAC review: Neko Audio

[tonepub]

Hey there:

Just got done with the review of the new Neko Audio D100 DAC. This is the one that I was telling you about last week.

This is a pretty cool piece of gear and very reasonably priced!

And, thanks Jerry!!

I really think the Neko is more rich tonally. It almost sounds tube-like.

However if you want USB, you'll need the PS.

Id say if your system was warm to neutral, you might prefer the PS and if your system was analytical to neutral you might prefer the Neko.

I felt that at the price point, the Neko was the most "analog sounding" of the others in that price category.

Does that help?
