Thanks everyone. I see where you guys are coming from and I do respect all opinions. The sound I want? I do not even know what I am looking for. So far, what I know is that Sonos Amp suck really bad, and SVS ultra bookshelf as a speaker is great but kinda strong in high pitch, so I am now looking for a smooth sounding speaker. My next trial is going to be Gold 100 5G from Monitor Audio. DAC-wise I have absolute zero clue, so your opinions really help.
New to audio. Is there a good DAC that can produce layers of sound?
One of the Youtube audio reviews I watch as a beginner in audio system is Darko
He says during the Chord Qutest review that this DAC can produce layers of sound which is great
I kinda understand what he says because from my very first audio setup, which I returned due to awful sound of music this week, I could still feel some layers, maybe 2, from Post Malone’s song Deja Vu. Only, there were 2 clear layer, from 16bit 44.1 kHz signals from Sonos Amp, one very far back near the speaker and one right next to my ear. I thought it was amazing though. The speaker was SVS ultra bookshelf.
Now those are all returned to the seller, and I am looking for something more clear, musical, and awesome. So, the Qutest is one of the DACs I want to try.
But, if there is any DAC you, as a more experience audiophiles, would like to recommend to me for having great sound effect, could you please list some names? with brief description of the sound?
The price range I am looking for is about $1.5K or less. I prefer less. Used items included.
I am on a journey to setup an enjoyable sound system for myself and would like to see what others like.
Thanks!
