| To simplify or go old school... Looking at the new Benchmark Dac 3 Forget the DAC 3 because you are already at Simplified and check with AR support for recommendations.The current AR gear has more modern function. (VT 80) | |
| Higher End DACs Much to take in on this thread ... Chord would be worth Listening to for one.TT2 with MScaler or even DAVE and w/wo MScaler (FPGA Type).The Audiophile Style Review referenced by m1k3 is through, and addresses relative components up and downstream ... | |
