The most analog sounding dac I've had in my system is the wyred for sound 10th anniversary dac. One of the reviewers put it up against his VPI turntable with a $5,000 Japanese cartridge and he said it was every bit as analog. And I totally agree. It's not cheap though, it's $4,500 US, but it beats many much more expensive dacs.
What DAC upgrade made you say “DAMN, that sounds SO MUCH better than my last DAC”?
As the title suggests, what was your overall system and DAC at the point where you bought only a new DAC and said “DAMN, that sounds SO MUCH better than my last DAC”?
I’m a novice and so many people talk about improvements from new equipment as if they were only listening to varying degrees of static until they bought more and more new equipment which added up to them finally being presented with music. It’s like Salome and the seven veils. But when does the last veil get peeled away?
So what system did you have and what DAC did you swap in that made you say “DAMN!!!!”?
I guess I’m looking for night and day differences, not gradual progressions……
