Mofimadness - You will be very happy with the Eastern Electric MiniMax DAC. I recommended it to a friend that has a 100K system. I think that he is more excited about the $750- DAC, than either his $22,000 pair of speakers or his Krell monoblocks.
Help with DAC Going nuts
I've been spending a great deal of time researching DACS. Much of it causes me to glaze over. I can't see myself going to a computer based system. For now I want to be able to stream internet radio. I've narrowed things down to a few brands. Wavelength Brick used, Paradisea Havana, maybe the new Rega. My intention is to buy and hold. I listen to a lot of acoustical/folk and female vocalists. System is tubed. I know that a thread like this often results in countless recommendations. I'll certainly welcome these but hopefully I'll hear from those who are familiar with the brands mentioned. Thank you in advance for your input.
