518 in and working a treat. Anyone got a 24bit 566 / 563?

Still looking for a DAC to replace the Cyrus.

Anyone got one for sale?

asou, have you tried the 518 at 22bit into the 565 into the 557? The 565 may be old technology but it is still no slouch. A 563/566 might not be a significant upgrade over a Cyrus (or over the 565 internal DACs) and you will end up with a simpler and cheaper solution. JM2C

Unless you are after the balanced option. (edit due to this afterthought)

You can actually set the 518 to 24bit as the 6.2a Firmware accepts and outputs at 24bit.

Ideally I'd like Balanced outputs for the 557, has anyone actually compared the two?
