AudiogoN Forums: Recommend used digital source for $3K used

Recommend used digital source for $3K used

This spring, I'm planning on being in a position to spend some money on a significant upgrade. One consideration is a new digital source in the "not to exceed" $3K range. I'm currently using a Jolida JD 100 with RCA NOS tubes.

I'm open to both CDP's or transport/DAC options, and already assume I will get the most bang for my buck with a DAC/transport.

Fellas, fellas, please... Wc65mustang could not possibly be Audiogon member AudioFeil, because that would mean that he is shilling for products he sells, and using another "identity" to make it seem legit, no less. Now we have seen many cases in this forum of Wc65mustang raking longstanding and highly respected Audiogon members over the coals for what HE described as shilling with a most righteous fervor, so you see, if he were REALLY AudioFeil, this would make him a complete hyprocrite. This simply cannot be. Can it, Wc65mustang? Mustang? Mustang??
