The glowing reviews about its predecessor (the DDA-100) and its price point (I paid $699 as an early adopter) convinced me to place an order

Having read the excellent reviews I went ahead and ordered a DDA-100 for my library

Their review was lukewarm.

The DDA-100 has no analog inputs, strictly digital, and the wonderful review in The Absolute Sound is for the DDA-100.

The reviews of the DDA100 were impressive, and the DDA120 promised to be even better
