Oh dear. The Benchmark is highly regarded by many, yet frequently quite controversial around these parts. Tends to generate strong feelings (and often disagreement). A search of the forums will bring you back more than you might want, but this one would be a great start. In sum, I think, it is an excellent dac with a very pronounced design goal inherent in its sonic presentation, and folks seem to either love it or hate it. Which camp you might fall into will take a listen to figure out.
Benchmark Dac 1 USB
Dear all,
ive been looking into DACS recently and i come accross this one while browsing the net. It is not very expensive relativly speaking. its small light weight and not very visually striking . there are very glowing reviews on the net. even suggestions that only the very, very best can better its performance.i find that quite difficult to believe. i dont take reviewers word for it, but they are able to point in a right direction. I would like to hear from owners of this dac. how would this dac compare to a dac in a 3-4k player? is it really only bettered by very expensive dacs? any views? thank you kindly
