McIntosh MA7900 DA1 DAC vs. DA2 DAC vs. external

As a side note did you like the Kefs for tektons better?

I have not used the qutest but was interested in one at one point based on good experience with the mojo. 
Anyway doing research (reading not listening) I came to the conclusion that the benchmark DAC3 sounds very similar but has more detail. 
Having owned a DAC3 it is still the best dac I have used and I never should have sold it. I see a HPA4 and DAC3 in my future. 
I feel like the DAC3 has great bass. I know that sounds odd about a dac. But benchmark has a 30 day no questions asked return policy. You could try one with zero risk. 

Dtximages,

thanks, for the feed back. Always interested to hear about unknown speakers compared to a speaker I know a bit (Kef). I am not a big kef fan. I feel like they lack dynamics. I can see why people like them though. 
I have spent some time with a older pair of klipsch horns (no mods) that a friend inherited from his Dad. Fun speaker for sure.
