Gents,

haven't seen any discussion here around LHLabs' crowd funding DAC project.

There's some hype about it on other fora and I would like to know what you guys think about it?

Looks very interesting was tempted to get their previous USB / DAC / Headphone amp for the office.

You mean the "Geek out" or the "DaVinci" ? ;-)

Ha ha I think it was called the "USB Awesomifier", but trickle down tech from DaVinci and interesting how these guys are crowdfunding some cool stuff that doesn't cost kilobucks.

Looks like that the geek will be shipped in Jan. They showed a prototype at the RMAF 2013 and already got some merits.
I assume if the geek out will be a success (after a couple serious tests by Stereophile or others) the run for the Pulse will begun.
But then only to the MSRP pricings.

It seems that with all the upgrades they offered it at Indiegogo it is a "bargain". Hmm.....I'm still not sure...
