A good DAC will take the edge off, I use a benchmark, there are plenty of others but that did the trick for me. Not only did the edge mellow but the mids and lows cleaned up and extended, benefits from top to bottom.
Can good speakers take edge off digital?
I have a pair of Quad 12L2 speakers hooked up to an 845 SET. When I am listening to analog, the system sounds fine. But with digital, well, it has that bit of the digital edginess. Can a better pair of speakers, say the Zu Druid, take the edge off the digital?
