If you HAD to purchase a used (over 4 years old) DAC, what would it be?


There's some great prices, if you look hard enough on used DACS over 4 years old (previous versions of current models, etc). If you needed a DAC and HAD to choose a used one, what model would you buy?

There are a few terrific sounding DACs that are pretty much unchanged over MUCH longer than four years.  I would take a twenty year old Audio Note DAC 5 over almost anything out there right now.

There are so many great choices….I would recommend you to check out AQUA HiFi - La Scala DAC MK2

. . . or the budget, for that matter.

Yes, many good choices. Knowing your whole system and preferences would be very helpful. It's a bit like saying find me a good desert for $10 without some additional direction. .
