Got back into two channel after a 7 year hiatus. Found a great combo of a class a amplifier and Fyne audio speakers. The dac was the Aqua audio, priced at over 8k. More than the speakers. Tested the system again without knowing the dac. Mbl delta sigma that cost more than the whole system. So I read reviews on multiple r to r and mainly are bought directly from Chinese companies. Since they had a us distributor and would service locally bought the audio gd r 7. Everything the Aqua audio has and more as I love the nos mode but can increase the os mode easily for more detail. At 3100. Not cheap, but hardly using turntable which was my preference
DAC Question: Delta-Sigma vs R2R
I have a general question, I am looking to buy my first standalone DAC, right now I have an Azur 851N, which is a streamer/DAC. As I look I continue to see discussions on Delta-Sigma vs R2R DACs.
I am in no way an audio expert nor do I have a good understanding of electronics.
In Laymen terms, Could anybody explain what is the difference between the 2 technologies?
