I run mine through my Audio Logic DAC, it almost (but not quite) sounds as good as my Forsell transport. Using an external DAC makes a significant improvement, in my view, over the unit's standard analog outputs, so I'd go for it.
Yamaha MCX-1000 + Benchmark DAC-1
Just bought a Yamaha music server MCX-1000. The sound is OK but I was wondering if the addition of an external DAC like the Benchmark or the CI Audio could improve the sound.
Do you think it is worth the investment or will I get only a minimal return ? Since I replaced the original hard disk (80gig) by a 300gig it allows me to stock my files in either PCM (without compression) or MP3 (320kps)
Thank you
