DAC Help
Hello everyone. New to the hobby and finally starting to piece together a complete Stereo/AV system. My current set up:
Sonus Guarneri evolution
Sonus Amati Center
JL Audio sub
Krell Phantom
Krell 403
Rotel HD CD player
Currently listening to two DACs for the past few days:
NADAC
CANARY KD2000
My thoughts so far:
With the NADAC, the vocals appear more forward, front and center and the music sort of a step behind the singer. Theres more airiness to the vocals that sometimes feels or sounds artificial? Sound stage is very similar with the Canary sounding a bit more "musically" of the two. I'm also considering the Lampizator GG and the EMM labs DA2. I'd appreciate any input and suggestions. Thanks.
