2nd on the Tranquility. I'm trading up to the Signature edition and returning a very lightly used unit. That returned unit will then be examined and sold at a significant discount. IMHO - exceptional value that has surpassed Benchmark, Chord, PS Audio, and a few other brands I've lost track of. But it's a USB only unit and works best via Mac Mini modified for RAM and SS hard drive with peripheral hard drive.
Help with DAC Going nuts
I've been spending a great deal of time researching DACS. Much of it causes me to glaze over. I can't see myself going to a computer based system. For now I want to be able to stream internet radio. I've narrowed things down to a few brands. Wavelength Brick used, Paradisea Havana, maybe the new Rega. My intention is to buy and hold. I listen to a lot of acoustical/folk and female vocalists. System is tubed. I know that a thread like this often results in countless recommendations. I'll certainly welcome these but hopefully I'll hear from those who are familiar with the brands mentioned. Thank you in advance for your input.
