Great question. Nearly all of my stuff used to be blue except for my Sim Moon DAC that had really bright red… it bothered me… but still I never actually thought of adding that to my criteria for equipment. Fortunately it solved itself, I now have all Audio Research stuff… no red all compatible.
Blue Lights
I know this is an off-the-wall question, but of all the DACs out there, say under $2.5K, are there any that offer blue lights on the front panel?
We don't have a dedicated listening room so our stereo will be located in the great room at our new house. We are by the water so there is a "Blue" theme going on here including kitchen cabinets (very close to the audio equip).
McIntosh, Luxman, Coda, lots of gear has blue lights or meters just don't know about DACs.
Of course I want something that sounds great as well, but in order to keep everybody happy (WAF) blue lights would help!
Life is a compromise...
