For 1100.00 you can't go wrong with Cambridge audio Cxnv2. The Wolfson dac chips sound very good and it works flawless as a streamer. I have one in my den running a Melody h6550 integrated. The roon also works perfect. Streamer, dac,preamp,roon. Then when you're ready for another upgrade send it to Modwright for the tube Truth Mod. Puts it on a whole different level.
Will a new Dac improve the sound?
I have an older CD player( Cary CDP1) . It sounds good ,but would a new or used Dac in the line improve the sound? Looking at Dacs in the $600 - $1200 range. I know the other equipment would also matter in the outcome, but as a general question......do you think this would be an upgrade to the sound? Or should i go another route?
