Not to throw a wrench in the DAC world, but what does everyone think of the T+A 200 DAC ?
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

@kairosman Thank you, your response is one of the best ones I have received so far. I have gone back and forth if I am being honest on what to get. This is my first dac and the lumin t3 is prob the easiest to get into to start. I have pass labs gear and I just didn’t wanna feel like I would want more down the road… |
@richardmathes it was a genuine question. That is part of what this site is for, is it not ? It’s like minded people who are into the same hobby. I bet you are the kind of guy who has an $800 a month truck payment and is always complaining he doesn’t have any money. |
@holmz no not yet, been a busy week. To many options haha. |
@holmz I agree with you. I have been taking my time. In no rush, I am trying to be smart and methodical in my decisions. I feel it’s been working so far. There are enough dac options to make your head spin these days. |
@lalitk Hey, I am building it slow and methodical. I have Pass Labs XP-12 and the X250.8. I just picked up a pair of Dynaudio Contour 60i a few weeks ago. I have Cardas Cyngus cables on the way now and I got an Audioquest Niagara 1200 with a 2m Monsoon cable. I have not put pics up since everything is still in the box/crates. I am not set on the Meitner either. I am open minded, I have read a lot about dacs and want to make a smart informative decision. It’s hard to say no to a Denafrips or a Holo May KTE for the money, not gonna lie.

@jjss49 Sir, I can get one for 7k NIB from a dealer. That is part of why I posted this to begin with, but thank you. |
@jjss49 Hey, thanks for the heads up. I was not looking at it like that. Appreciate it. |
