Question for DACs


I wonder whether DAC could greatly improve the sound qulity of old CD through my DVD-V player. If it really could , is there any DAC (about us$800) can decode HDCD or with upsampling function. Thank you for your advice.

The newer EVS Millenium II DAC's that Ric will be coming out with soon should be a FABULOUS steal at appr. $850. These are upsamplers and upgradeable as newer standards are released. I know that Ric likes using some of the various DVD players as transports, so that should not be a problem. The only problems that i do foresee is that they might not have HDCD circuitry and that you'll probably have a pretty long wait getting one. I know that he's already backordered for quite a few units. The first ones to be produced should be rolling out the doors in a few weeks. I'm one of the early ones on the list, so i can't wait for mine to arrive !!! Sean >
