DAC’s

Hello, curious on everyone’s thoughts. I’m still building my system. I came across a really good deal on a Meitner MA3 dac. It’s from an authorized dealer and they offered to sell me one NIB for 7k. I have read and read about dacs and I am getting tired. Haha. I really like the Denafrips Terminator 2, Holo and the lumin T3 being the cheapest of them all. Once I factor in a streamer I am already close or over the 7k. Also I don’t need a dac for anything other then just streaming. Thank you

You might consider getting a streamer that is separate from the DAC.

OP, for that price, if true audio quality is the focus, you should find a way to do a blind test.  You might not be able to tell the difference between a 2K DAC and a 7K DAC.  At these upper price ranges they are all good.  At these prices, perhaps we should not think about one device necessarily being better than another, but instead which device you find more pleasing or which suits your personal preferences and the rest of your gear.
