Nekoaudio,
Could you please tell us what R2R and Sabre DCS`s you compared the AKM4490 to?

nekoaudio, I`m actually considering your DAC also. But I`m bit tempted of the $500 Denafrips ARES or DAC-64. It`s discrete R2R (0,01). The technology is same as in the very top MSB, DCS etc. I need a small DAC for my Smart TV (8 series Philips optical out) it will probably put out PCM in stereo mode). P.S. I`m 99% sure that none of these DAC`s better the d/a in my SA-1, but shootout will be a fun anyway! |
