I have a 9/10 trade-in silver Comet Plus DAC. It comes with the $600.00 optional external power supply. It is, in our opinion, the best DAC made for this price.  

Rated Product of the Year in Part Time Audiophile:                 http://parttimeaudiophile.com/2015/12/30/best-of-2015-and-product-of-the-year/


"That is what the Exogal Comet represents for me, a sizable step
toward a sensation of living sound, not a reproduced electronic
production.
Though we still cannot completely capture the nuances of a
live performance, the Comet is superb at rendering a sensation good
enough to fool the ears. The Comet is my favorite DAC in the under $4K
space, and should be heard by anyone seeking a no-compromise digital
experience. Especially for those with lesser digital file playback
systems, this DAC can save your system, and revolutionize your listening
experience. It is the only digital treatment to best the reigning 32
bit high frequency scheme."


"The best news is that Exogal has just gotten underway. The Comet
blazes a wide and bright path toward future products, and the savvy
system builder would do well to own the Comet, and pay close attention
to Exogal’s future components."

In their Component list for 2015 they said:

"Sweetest DAC: The Exogal Comet does not simply alter the digital signal, it replaces the signal entirely.
I’m a believer; for the past six months no matter how much I refine the
signal (Remember the HQ Player software? I have it feeding the DAC now
with 32 bit/6.1MHz!) the Comet DAC turns it into golden sound. The Comet
even makes streaming music from Rhapsody, processed at 16bit/44.1kHz,
more than acceptable for casual listening. The preamp section of the
Comet is stupendous, so clean and robust it will complement the most
gorgeous amps. I have used both extremely high power and low power amps
with it, both with outstanding results."

In the Hifi + review they said: "The Exogal is remarkable value for money and could quite happily sit at the hub of many a high-end digital system. "


Exogal (which means Out of this Galaxy) is a Minnesota company that makes DAC's and amplifiers. Its DNA comes from original Wadia engineers. Jim Kinne who designed the original Wadia gear is legendary and did the original Wadia DigiMaster™ products  that are still considered exceptional. Jim is now designing state of the art products at affordable prices.  


The
Exogal Comet is a high performance digital to analog audio converter
(DAC) that is also a pre-amplifier with an analog input for your phono stage.  Just connect your computer, or other digital or analog sources, and
experience exceptional audiophile quality sound. The Comet DAC does
everything you would expect a high-end DAC to do, including balanced and
unbalanced analog outputs, digital volume control and asynchronous USB
input - all at a sensible price.

The Comet uses an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) for its DAC. That means that unlike the competition that uses a commercially available DAC chip from from companies like ESS, Wolfson or Burr brown, the Comet is all programmed by Exogal and is upgradable over the web. So it offers built in NON Obsolescence.

Comet
reviews have been exceptional.
