DAC to replace Sony 5400
I recently sold my Sony 5400 to finance a Mac Mini/Ipad Mini. I'm currently running a Radio Shack toslink cable between the computer and the DAC in my Behringer DEQ2496, but I would like to step up. I really liked the sound of the 5400, so I guess that is the bar I'm looking to stay above.
I have been a bit overwhelmed by the number of DACs out there, many of which are well-liked and well-reviewed. I want to keep the budget as low as is possible, although I also don't really want to settle for a "great sound, considering the price" piece (although I guess that's what I did with the Sony).
Rest of the system is a Parasound A21 amp, ARC SP-16 preamp driving Thiel 3.6s. Thanks in advance for your input. -Jon
