1K dac

hi

actually I don't need an usb input as I will feed this dac with the coaxial out of a squeezebox touch.

I wouldn't mind going on a used one, even if it's really old.
the only thing that matters is the sound quality.

my budget covers everything under 1K$

I saw the ack dac 2.0, It doesn't seem to be very popular nowadays, but I found a lot of thread around 2005/2006, what do YOU think?

thanks for reading

Customcoco,
If you`re still looking,on 6 moons.com there`s a current review of the CEtrance DAC with comparisons to both the Burson and Metrum Octave DACs.

Srajan Ebaen thinks quite highly of the CEntrance DAC, higher resolution and detail retrival than the Burson DACs(but lacks the Burson`s density and body).

The Metrum lacks the feature set and flexibility of either but combines both very high resolution/clarity with superior tone saturation,scale and image density.
