Audio Research - DAC9

Hello folks,

I am wondering if anyone here lucky enough to experience the ARC new foundation series components. I am only interested in hearing first hand experience from the owners of DAC 9 and LS28.  

Lack of ARC dealer in my area and online professional reviews makes it bit hard to pull the plug on these components. 

Thank you for your time.

@audiodragon777,

Yes, it will play FLAC files from any of its AES, SPDIF or Toslink inputs. The only exception is USB interface, which is not compatible with Linux based servers.

Many thanks lalitk.

My BDP-2 outputs DSD only thru its USB jacks, so if DSD is to be in my future, DAC9 is out.
Haven’t heard DAC9 yet, and I am wary of tubes in DACs (I own LS27 and love it paired with a Bryston power amp).
