| Should I add a DDC? I added a Denafrips Iris DDC to my Pontus II last year and Ithought it pretty clearly improved the overall sound. I’m using an UltraRendu with a LPS in the setup. Best of luck | |
| Should I graduate to floor standers or will larger bookshelves suffice? I loved my Fritz Carrera BE speakers. Well made. I much preferred them over my KEF LS50 metas or Harbeth P3 ESRs. Reach out to Fritz. Great guy and he can answer any questions you might have | |

| Banchmark DAC3B vs. Denafrips Pontus II (12th Aniv.) I have the Pontus II with an ultraRendu streamer. I love the combination and have never had the pops and clicks issue. I use it with an Audio Research LS7 preamp, a Rogue Audio stereo 100 amp and Fritz Carrera BE speakers. I am very happy with ... | |
