What can you audition for DACs that will give you an idea of what $i,000 buys ? Peachtree is good stuff no doubt but I am sure you have discovered it isn't the end all in audio by most measures. It sounds like you have a case case of acute upgraditis, it isn't usually terminal so don't worry.
Peachtree DAC-it power supply upgrade?
First, what are the best options for replacing/upgrading the 9v wall-wart PS? I don't see a ton of options out there, especially from the 'standard' cable manufacturers.
Second, should I bother? If a PS upgrade is in the $250 range (estimate from the Welborne Labs website) would I be better off selling the unit and upgrading to a DAC in the $1000 range?
