| Six DAC Comparison @markmuse - I wouldn’t rule out the Aero based on my impressions, which were mostly positive. Also, remember there is a 14-day trial period. I will try and get my hands on a Mystique Y, which would help provide a bit of contrast at the $4K price ... | |

| Six DAC Comparison @soix - Absolutely. I had all six DACs here at once over the past month and the LTA Aero is the only one that had to be returned. I own the others. I had five of them powered up and on my stand and three or four of them connected through the D... | |
| Six DAC Comparison To all, it seems we want to read that our latest/greatest, or next/greatest, purchase will be universally acclaimed and will suffer all scrutiny without any identified flaws. It just doesn’t work that way. As an example, look at all the subjective... | |

| Six DAC Comparison The “Z” in X SE NCZ means the X SE unit I own already has the Z-chips, as well as nano-crystalline chokes (“NC”) making it essentially Benjamin’s current “flagship” DAC. I did talk with Benjamin some time ago about moving the Z-chips from my EVO ... | |
| Six DAC Comparison Benjamin brings up a very important point in that with any of this stuff, the subjective opinions of reviewers, manufacturers, equipment owners, and others are predicated by the personal experiences and preferences of the individuals providing the... | |
| Good quality SPDIF 75ohm BNC and RCA plugs - which ideally match aesthetically too! If you want to save time, and like the Oyaide connectors, you could buy this cable for not a lot more than the cost of the connectors - about $200 for 1.3M.the | |
| Passive preamp question Certain Hattor preamps also offer the options of passive operation or variable gain. | |
| Good quality SPDIF 75ohm BNC and RCA plugs - which ideally match aesthetically too! I used to make cables and probably wasted a lot of time and money using “just the right” connectors on new, untried, builds.
