DAC’s


Hello, curious on everyone’s thoughts. I’m still building my system. I came across a really good deal on a Meitner MA3 dac. It’s from an authorized dealer and they offered to sell me one NIB for 7k. I have read and read about dacs and I am getting tired. Haha. I really like the Denafrips Terminator 2, Holo and the lumin T3 being the cheapest of them all. Once I factor in a streamer I am already close or over the 7k. Also I don’t need a dac for anything other then just streaming. Thank you

Not to throw a wrench in the DAC world, but what does everyone think of the T+A 200 DAC ? 

You are delusional. At no point have I used language even close to profanity. Calling someone’s comments caustic is akin to profanity? That’s a joke.

The most dangerous person in the world is someone with a bit of knowledge.

  • Fuses are used to prop up the egos of some super human beings
  • Expensive cable is for fools
  • Power cables do NOT affect amplifier sound
  • Most contributors here are superhumans who can hear sounds that do not exist.
  • There is no such thing as an audio network switch
  • This is catnip for the superhumans on this thread who claim they can hear a difference :). Keep on spending, good laughing material. Anyone who claims they can hear it is either very gullible to marketing or from another planet or on some psychedelic substance.
  • Power conditioners are all snake oil and are NOT needed.
  • İt is a joke selling a $100 switch to be audiphool modified.So many gullible people around it is simply amazing.
  • Actually if you use it in the arctic in a vertical orientation with two polar bears looking at it, the sound is phenomenal.
  • If you are hearing a difference it is all in your mind.
  • What makes a DAC so expensive: Audiophiles who think that the more expensive a product is, the better it must be....
  • If you think otherwise, you are either delusional and/or very gullible to the power of suggestion from marketing folks
  • Another snake oil subject. I do NOT believe power cords matter either.
  • A $50 cable is good enuf
  • Fuses do NOT contribute to the sound in any way AT ALL.
  • My cables cost a whooping $50 ant they are perfect. As long as shielded, every cable is perfect.
  • When will the audiophools stop fooling themselves and realize the exaggerated placebo effect ?
  • Fuse believers should please repeat after me, while slowly and periodically banging your head against a corner wall...
  • Anyone who thinks a fuse changes the sound, suffers an inferiority complex, which manifests itself in them feeling superior to everyone else thinking they hear differences.
  • Audiophile network switches are snake oil.
  • most of the audiogon contributors are indeed delusional :-) That is not a putdown but reality.
  • Forget this fuse bull s..t
  • Some of you seriously need help. I can recommend a good audiologist and/or a psychiatrist.
  • We are simply trying to help some delusional parties who claim they hear voices which do not exist, by introducing them to reality :-)
  • The reviewer is either dreaming/hallucinating or had mismatched impedances in his cables in the first place.A $10 coax will work just as fantastic.
  • Audiophools judge mostly by price.

 

In the end, there is no help available for a zealot with a closed mind.

@jerrybj that is some serious research with hilarious quotes. What did you do? Tortured some ASR minion to get it all? LMAO

woosah dude it’s not worth it.
