Well my e-club membership expired yesterday, so that is another 10% that has permanently gone up in smoke! The big size, medium size, small size, plus size, big & tall size, dwarf size, and what-have-you size Egos, all seem set to give a miss to the current sales period... That sucks, but I can live with the situation... I just wish I could see some hard specs on the various incarnations of the Ego, so that I can decide if I want one on my wish list or not... Just Specs! I am particularly keen about how powerful their on-board headphone amplifiers might be...

The E-go is a no-go, at least for now.

I figured I'd make use of the last few days of my e-Club membership, so for me the Big Ego at $177.39 was worth the optical output over the Little Ego. This will compliment nicely, my old Intel I3 powered HP Laptop in its music server capacity.

I just want a better sound when using the laptop and headphones. The Little does it for me...

How else can you use them? In my case it's because I want to use a PC and get good results with my cans. I don't know if it's usable with anything else. Perhaps a tablet or iPod with a powered USB hub?

Just ordered a Big Ego as my first entry into the stand-alone DAC market.
I use an Astro Gaming A40 Mixamp to get mock-surround out of my headphones from games that support Dolby Pro Logic / Dolby Digital. Does the Big Ego effectively pass Dolby content through the Toslink output, or would it come out as 2-channel PCM? The link to the manual on the Resources page for Big Ego doesn't work, but the Specifications page mentions "Format: PCM digital audio" so I'm assuming the answer is going to be PCM.
Also, have you guys done any testing of the Windows audio driver with Windows 10?
