Drummerman, I think you come from a different place to some. So many people these days have DACs, CD players with DAC inputs, streamers with DAC inputs, standalone phono stages etc etc etc that at this level including cut-price versions of same would allow accusations of wasting money where it isn't needed.
What you're getting here is a high power, high quality amplifier with (thankfully) a headphone socket, at a price that undercuts rivals from Naim, Leema, PMC and others. The Roksan Blak is the only similar offering at the same price level among British amps.
As far as 'exciting it ain't' - you haven't heard it. No-one outside Rega has. So why the negativity? If it turns out to be a dog, fair enough.
