Jeff Rowland Aeries DAC comparison to current DACs


This dac came out almost 15 years ago, technology has advanced since then. Does this dac still have value in today’s market of high end brands such as playback design mp6, Meitner ma3, etc

I've owned several DACs, including the JR Aeries. The only way to know is to compare it to current DACs, preferably in your system. I can tell you anything, but it only applies to my system, with my ears. As I grow in this hobby, I came to the realization that no one can tell you what will work in your system or determine the value of a particular component.

In my opinion all DACs don't sound the same. In my experience there are tonal, soundstage, and differences in how bass sounds.
