I read in another forum that ARC will come with a new version that should support DSD.

Anyone has infos about this ?

Nope. But I heard from a dealer that a new DAC is underway replacing the DAC8. No details.

ARC did come out with DAC9 a couple of months ago.

I know but I want a " streaming DAC " with Ethernet input to read music files direct form à NAS and also able to stream TIDAL or QOBUZ over internet ... like the REF DAC did. ( I write " did" because I do not see It anymore on ARC web site, so may be It is discontinued ??? )..
