Has anyone heard about this DAC(Chord 64 dac). How does it perform. Compare others like Marks, wadia or MSB platinum.

Here's a link to their web site which contains the details on this so called new technology. I'd be interested to hear what some of the more technical Audiogoners think of the theory behind it. http://195.40.133.90/website/main-products.htm

I cannot praise it enough. My dealer tried to convince me that the Linn CD 12 is better, but not to my ear. I ditched my Linn Ikemi as soon as I heard it, and it saves $17,000 compared to the CD 12. Let me know your email address so that we can discuss some issues with the DAC privately. T.H.
