| Qualities Of An End-game System @immatthewj music can get so good it will float in the air. Lol. For some of us music does get us high! Time to tap that EAR VEIN! lol | |
| What the Best Dac have you heard or owned. How could you tell it was that good. @jetter I left Audiogon years ago. I started to post more recently since we got back from pandemic. I only started on the business side by happenstance. Hans Looman of Infigo flew from Canada to my house 5 years ago after I assisted another comp... | |
| What the Best Dac have you heard or owned. How could you tell it was that good. One last thing. If I paid for a 35k it better be damn well one of the best I have heard. Ah duh. | |
| What the Best Dac have you heard or owned. How could you tell it was that good. @everyone we are all in different places audio wise. Wherever you are in this journey. Enjoy it. Listen to all the stuff you can. Gain as much experience as you can. Trust your ears. Get the best gear you can and don’t over extend yourself doing s... | |
| What the Best Dac have you heard or owned. How could you tell it was that good. @jetter no one is calling me out on anything. If it’s the best I heard it’s the best I’ve heard. Regardless. Look I’m a hobbyist first. I enjoy this I like learning about audio. Whether it’s Infigo or not. Look a lot of us are never going to see ... | |

| What the Best Dac have you heard or owned. How could you tell it was that good. @kairosman great points. Try to explain that to some folks and they think we are being uppity. When you have great components you got to feed it the best you can through the entire system. A lot of the time it will require a substantial investme... | |
| What the Best Dac have you heard or owned. How could you tell it was that good. @dz13 to each his own. I disagree but you have to do what works for you in your system and setup. You have to do what suits you in your system. For you this is the case. I understand. | |
| What the Best Dac have you heard or owned. How could you tell it was that good. @dz13 dac is very important. It’s your source. The rest of your system can only reproduce what starts there. | |
| What the Best Dac have you heard or owned. How could you tell it was that good. @daveyf exactly. I have infigo dac, cables, and amplifier. I actually use a stripped down mini pc with only audio optimized as my streamer and it’s controlled and runs Audirvāna Studio for playback. Great sound. | |
| What the Best Dac have you heard or owned. How could you tell it was that good. @daveyf i thought it was really good. I like my dac more but the esoteric got a lot right | |
| What the Best Dac have you heard or owned. How could you tell it was that good. @wokeuptobose i can definitely understand your analysis. Some people think folks are being snooty but there is a lifelike experience with a lot of the higher end dacs. When I hear voices it feels like I’m there in the hall with him. It seems like... | |
| What the Best Dac have you heard or owned. How could you tell it was that good. @daveyf i recently demoed an esoteric N01xd. I was actually impressed by it. They make really high level gear. | |
| What the Best Dac have you heard or owned. How could you tell it was that good. Some people post stuff they have never heard. I actually let people demo our cables at Infigo. There are 5 people demoing as we speak. So I let you try before you buy. You be the judge in your own system. BOBBY BOOSHAY SHOULDNT BE TELLING YOU ... | |
| What the Best Dac have you heard or owned. How could you tell it was that good. @wsrrsw yes. At the reference level it becomes a personal taste thing. I like smooth but detailed without being analytical and that’s the best way to describe my dac and personal preferences. |
