DAC’s
Hello, curious on everyone’s thoughts. I’m still building my system. I came across a really good deal on a Meitner MA3 dac. It’s from an authorized dealer and they offered to sell me one NIB for 7k. I have read and read about dacs and I am getting tired. Haha. I really like the Denafrips Terminator 2, Holo and the lumin T3 being the cheapest of them all. Once I factor in a streamer I am already close or over the 7k. Also I don’t need a dac for anything other then just streaming. Thank you

it wasn’t lockdown for me but i can relate to forcing functions… when i retired 6 years ago i set out to explore analog vs. digital in some depth.. i invested in recording chain tools and support a local studio / engineer / recording artist on an investment / patronage basis. importantly i built my own mobile recording rack with both an excellent A2D and high speed tape. I drew my own conclusions from microphone selection, placement, configuration, cables, preamps, mixer(s), I didn’t buy a record lathe…. perhaps we can agree that except for a D2D, that format sourced from a tape..is lossy ? now back to getting those Royer ribbons just so…. and to stay on the OP original?…. of course an MA3 is fantastic |
@larsman blessed you are my friend ;-) enjoy in great health. i am blessed to be listening to Oscar Peterson this morning on a very enjoyable integrated streamer / DAC from NAIM…. best to all |
@lalitk Bob is a good dude :-) we shall see…. He is true gentleman |
@jjss49 has a lot of wisdom in both posts….. no need to respond to a troll. I found the MSB analog w power base the near equal of my Aesthetix Pandora ….. Nits at this musical level…. Best to all in music |
