You owe it to yourself a new USB DAC--either the PS Audio NuWave or the W4S DAC-2. I wouldn't spend money on an expensive USB/SPDIF converter considering the improvements made in USB DACs over the past 4-5 years. Even the Resonessence Concero ($600) is an option today if you don't plan on playing DSD files.
DAC upgrade assistance needed
Hi all,
I've been out of audio about 4-5 years. The DAC I own is a PS Audio Digital Link III.
Now, I want to get into computer audio with my MAC desktop. I'm only seeking to play digital audio files via iTunes/Pure Music via my home system.
What's a cost effective more modern DAC to upgrade to from the Digital Link III? I was considering the W4S Dac-2 @ $1500. Is there any other product I should also consider before pulling the trigger on the W4S Dac-2?
Thanks to all in advance.
