Not aware of any NOS dacs with balanced outputs, or aes/ebu...
NOS DACs?
I auditioned Assemblage DAC 2.6 DF1704 version, and I was floored.
It had absolutely correct tonality, just incredible, exceptional rhythm, all instruments followed the same pace, the whole presentation was scary real.
I have never heard anything like this.
This DAC is no longer made.
Can those NOS DACs lovers please comment on what NOS DACs on today’s market may be equal to or exceed (if it is even possible?) the performance of Assemblage DAC 2.6?
I am not interested in USB or tube DACs, only SS DACs that will have AES/EBU digital input (preferably SPDIF as well) and balanced analog outputs (preferably unbalanced as well).
