Today's profusion of DAC's at all price points is just marketing ploys to sell something "new" and get the gullible to spend their shekels! Use and enjoy what you have in the Delius - an excellent DAC!
Replace my DAC or not?
Hi folks--
Be kind to me, I've been out of the digital loop much too long. I have recently started up listening again after I moved to my new home. I now have space for listening my set up. So, here's my question: I am considering a new CD Transport (PS Audio or MCT450), but now have thought about whether my DAC needs an upgrade, too. My DAC is a dCS Delius, which I bought new almost 20 years ago. Nothing wrong with it, just don't know if I am listening to a Dinosaur compared with what is out there. I would very much want to limit my upgrade to a new Transport only and not have to shell out $6k or more for a new Transport.
Thank you for listening.
