Yes, I would indeed like to do a high-end DAC in the future. With a larger form-factor, it would permit the addition of an ASRC, the choice of a DAC chip with fully-differential output, and perhaps a discrete output stage, etc. In the mean time, the little γ1 should still be better than most in its size/price class.

Speaking of computer audio, my CD player has basically been retired. I now use the Squeezebox 3 on my main system, feeding the Benchmark DAC1 (eventually to be replaced by my own high-end DAC) and the β22/β24 amps. My main Linux server at home runs the SqueezeCenter software which streams music (a good portion of it in FLAC format) to the Squeezebox over wi-fi.
