Looking forward to your recommendations! each of my 3 turnt... | |
| Wadax Reference Dac and Reference Server--arrived in my room. @chayro it’s hard to give answers in purely price terms with analog, and performance is not that predictable relative to price. some vintage is not so expensive, and DIY efforts can make big differences. and the quality of the pressings of vinyl ... | |
