Sorry for my awkward post, I've not compared the Codes as a line level DAC, I defer to the experience of others, but I would _not_ be surprised it is equally outstanding there too.
Ayre Codex vs. ESS SABRE ES9010K2M (Yamaha AS801)
Hey all:
I'm thinking about purchasing a Yamaha AS801 which has the ESS Sabre DAC in it. I have an Ayre Codex presently. Wondering if the Yamaha DAC would be a good replacement for the Codex or if I should buy a DACless amp and keep the Codex. Does that make sense?
Thoughts appreciated.
