Absolute Sound just lost most if not all their cred if this report is true.Did it ever have any?I don't know.I wonder who reviews magazines?Remember Payola in the 50's?Don't get me started......
Should I go to a Benchmark DAC1 pre in my system?
The magazine reviews rave about this device. Absolute Sound calls it revolutionary and says it compares very favorably to high end DCS equipment, which I've heard and liked.
How does it stack up against the competition as a pre-amp for both digital and analogue sources and as a DAC?
I believe I could run my Denon CD as a transport and my Roku Soundbridge directly into it, and add a phono-pre and connect my turntable as well. That would cover 99% of my current listening sources. I could also add a music server later via USB when ready.
Should I do it?
