I heard about new DACs on the market better than Scarlatti. StahlTek Vekian and GTE Audio. Someone compared them with Scarlatti? Any other DAC compared with dcs?
What would be really interesting is a comparison between GTE and Wadia 922. Both use 8 x Burr Brown 1704K per channel in what seem to be similar technologies, and both use dual mono DAC boxes. The Wadia is of course much cheaper.
I have been using the Orpheus Heritage for a while now and agree with Geopolitis that it is probably one of the best DAC in the world. There are other contenders of course, but get the source, power chord and anti-vibration platform right, and it is one of the most natural sounding.
Murataltuev, I use mainly Clearaudio Magix magnetic levitation pucks combined with Black Diamond Racing platforms for anti vibration. As for power, PS Audio Power Plant Premiere and JPS Labs cables.
