DAC with multiple inputs


Looking for a dac, $5-800 used, with multiple digital inputs. Would like the benefit of dac with my cdp and cable box for music but price constraints limit me to one unit.

Hi jamesw20 - I use the North Star DAC which meets my input needs very well. It has four inputs including coax/spdif, either another coax/spdif or toslink, AES/EBU and I2S. The unit sounds great and looks great to boot. Also, if you later want to get a new transport, there is a matching transport which also works great and looks great. I use the DAC to power the transport, a HTPC and my DirectTV satellite box/hd tivo. You should be able to pick up the DAC for around the $800 mark or less.
