Increasingly our attention has been turning to FireWire-connectable DACs: something of a rarity in the audiophile market. One notable exception is the Weiss Minerva, an audiophile incarnation of the company's professional DAC2. Internally and in respect of capabilities and interfaces the two are identical, but the Minerva looks less utilitarian. Although it is a two-channel device, multiple Minervas can be daisy-chained via the FireWire interface, allowing you (in theory) to build a multichannel system. But Daniel Weiss says he hasn't tried this, so you should assure yourself first thatrnMinervas can indeed be used this way without latency or other issues.
