Best DAC’S $5k to $15k

I have DAVE and M-scaler. they are excellent.  Better than great.  Spectacular.    that said, I'd like to hear some of the other responses to this thread.

Given your positive experience with the Chord Mscaler and TT2, the Chord DAVE could be a great choice within your budget. It’s known for its exceptional sound quality and performance. 🎧 Dog blog 🎶 However, I recommend auditioning it if possible to ensure it meets your preferences.

Love my Bricasti M3. Wish I could afford their M21.

There are obviously many great DACs in that wide price range so it’d be most helpful to know what specific improvements and sound characteristics you’re looking for in order to suggest other DACs that might be worth considering.
