+another for Ayre Acoustics. A pre-owned QB-9 or Codex will provide neutral sound reproduction and a quiet background with excellent dynamics and detail, but without any edginess. And Ayre’s support and upgrade policies are excellent. My QB-9 DSD has provided 5 years of trouble free and engaging listening.
$1300-1500 DAC
I’m thinking of adding an external DAC to my secondary system. I’m running a bluesound node 2i, RCA out to a Schiit freya+, RCA out to an Accuphase P-250 (beautifully restored) amp, to a pair of ascend acoustics Sierra 2ex. It already sounds awesome, but y’all know how this is... I want more.
Im looking at a Schiit Gungnir Multibit... the price is right and it’s well reviewed.
I will say that, in my main system I use a Simaudio Moon 280d and it’s awesome.
Any thoughts? What else should I be looking at?
