@mod_asored Tons of good advice so far, my only add in is look at DAC connections and get something that has I2S and USB inputs if possible. It's always good to have options. I would love to get an R2R DAC for my second system.
Happy hunting!
DAC Question: Delta-Sigma vs R2R
I have a general question, I am looking to buy my first standalone DAC, right now I have an Azur 851N, which is a streamer/DAC. As I look I continue to see discussions on Delta-Sigma vs R2R DACs.
I am in no way an audio expert nor do I have a good understanding of electronics.
In Laymen terms, Could anybody explain what is the difference between the 2 technologies?
