I have tried several moderately price DACs. They all change the sound but it is entirely subjective as to wh... | |
| Mini-monitor suggestions for a Blue Circle CS At present I am using a set of first generation ref 3a decappos with the i upgrade. This is a pretty darn good match IMHO. They have plenty of sensitivity and a pretty steady impedence trace. They seem very balanced tonally. I don't what if any sp... | |
