ARCAM rDAC


I am wondering if anyone got this here in NOrth america? I can't find any discussion about this new product. Anyhow, any thoughts on the overall sound about their USB async transfer by dCS? I really want this but as I search from my local arcam dealer they don't have it YET..

Thank you

Thank you for the reply. A dealer told me the same (CEDIA). I thought that was just a escape goat to get rid of me. ANyways, if you sampled it in your system it would be nice if you can comment on the sound.

I am most interested on the sound thru USB as that's where am I heading to implement on mine.

Thanks again

Kbarkamian,

I haven't heard of a rega planning to have a DAC. Is there a buzz going on if they're going to follow many manufacturer? I think rega is better than arcam. hehehe, it's going to be hard to decide then..
Can't understand the term "polite". Sorry! I have never owned an arcam product before.

@Tricka, what is your definition of a simple music (vocals/jazz/bluegrass)? Seems sound on the bright side eh? Hyperdetailed? Whats your equipment?

ALso, do you have preference on the USB cable used?

You got the rDAC on your local arcam dealer?

Thanks. :-)
Don't you think it's too much to ask for $479 DAC to reproduce music that is complicated? I think even a decent $4k bookshelf speaker will crumble if tested to such degree.. just a thought!
