Congratulations!
I liked the ION when I heard it some time ago -- the DAC with pre model.
Did you get the solo DAC or the pre + DAC?

I never use Pre from a DAC, even not that good one in MU2. So this is the DAC-only, you see it in the back of the device, no analogue ports. I've a personal, clear policy and strictly use separates Some may argue, it is my experience in certain quality levels you get more out of separates..

Not complaining, I'll use settings once every year in a DAC like yours

Thanks Gerald, we are happy to hear this! If you are around in the Munich show, stop by!
Since you like the Siren USB cable, if you have the chance, try to audition the Electra LAN cable, which can provide a very positive influence in the system.

This is the case, I agree a bit on the UI , it takes a little time to learn...
