So, the reference server doesn't run to external psu.s? Those in the pic belong to the dac?
Is there a price yet?

Yes there is a transport coming. It will be in 2022 hopefully first quarter.
By the way my DAC has been playing for about 2 weeks or so and I cant describe what it is doing. Everything you thought you knew and assumed about digital is just wrong. The ability to put images in space and allow the listener to hear the music and the spaces between the notes is other worldly. Wadax has IMHO has not just pushed the envelope they tore it up! Listening is believing. I called Oliver Göbel last week and my words to him were simply you have not heard what a Divin Marquis is capable of until you hear it with this.

I am really having a hard time walking out of that room even for lunch or to go home at night.

That "design" reminds me very much of the inside of the submarine in Jules Verne's 20'000 leagues under the sea :D

My Server arrived today and I stayed late just to get it working and arranged in my room. Javier spent some time with my going over the set up and I have still some things to do with my stored music.

The server is running and playing overnight. First impression of the whole system is just SICK.
Every time I walk in there I loose time and walk out like I had smoked a bowl of hash.
This is something every music lover should experience. It is not priced for everyone I am very aware of that but it is TRULY a statement item. 2021-06-16 15.00.58.jpg
