Thoughts on Hegel's D50 DAC?


Has anyone tried Hegel’s new D50 DAC? If so, how do you feel it compares sonically with other DACs in its price range or above (say, Hugo TT, Denafrips Terminator II, Berkeley’s Alpha Series 3)?

Indeed. In fact, my local Hegel dealer in MTL doesn't even have 1 in his listening room at the moment. I wanted to audition it with the gear I currently use.

Thanks for this. Word is that the D50 is significantly more revealing than the DAC inside the H600, which is no slouch. I own the latter and currently don't use an external DAC. It's the above claim I will want to ascertain when I finally get to demo the new DAC.
