Scott Nixon - Sarudac+? TubeDac+? vs CI Audio


I haven't seen much information about his Sarudac and was curious if anyone has had any experience with it.

And does anyone have any experience pairing any of these DACs with a NAD for a transport (I am considering the NAD 521BEE or 542)

External DACs are a bit of a mystery to me and I'm trying to resolve how much better these external DACs will be when coupling to CD players that have "better" DACs.

If anyone can provide a link or a better explanation (especially in regards to these value DACs) I'd appreciate it,

Thanks

Thanks for the responses :)

In response to Listener57 I am running a pair of Quad 21Ls with a NADC350 Integrated Amplifier (click on my system for far too much information and pictures of components).

As a student I had wanted to spend more on a CD player, but cannot justify it at this time and am trying to reconcile either spending the money on budget CDP+DAC or a better CDP as it will be one of my last upgrades for a while (so says she who must be obeyed).

Thanks
