Looking for a new DAC

 

Looking for dac recommendations

I have been slowly doing major upgrades to my system and now it’s time for a better dac.

Current system

Modwright KWH 225i integrated

Magnepan 3.7i speakers

Rotel RCD-1572 cd player

Will not be upgrading these anytime soon

 

Need upgrading

Schiit Modius dac

WiiM Ultra streamer (considering the Aurender N200)

Looking for a dac that will complement the Modwright and Magnepans.

 

Below is a few suggestions I have received but not sure how they will sound with my system.

T+A DAC 200

Gold Note DS-10 EVO

Laiv Harmony

Weiss DAC 204

I do know the ASR folks would vehemently disagree

What ASR folk say is often uninteresting and tedious, though ASR is a huge forum so you're bound to run into very bright people too.

More saliently, many experts disagree as well, including respected DAC designers.

But at the end of the day, it's all about what your ears tell you.
