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

Hi lewinskih,

The only reference I have to compare the touch's coaxial to is the audiophilleo.

The only thing I can say Is that it sounded more closed-in and less detailed.
But you have to consider the audiophilleo was extremely detailed, Too much for my taste.

sorry I cannot be of any help on that one..
I recieved shipment of the USB/Spdif converter from Mapleshade. I am unable to use it because I am awaiting arrival of a coax digital cable. It should be here next week. I will compare that setup to my current glass optical.
Hi
Have a look at the Black Lion Mr RED it looks nothing but by all accounts it is a excellent DAC speak to these guys they are very helpful.Good luck.
Thanks for your answer Patal and sorry for my belated reply...

I'm currently looking for an used parasound.. Probably a 1600 hd or an 1100hd.
