Thanks guys, maybe I will leave well enough alone but entertain the Monarchy upgrade, Happy Holidays!
Theta Pro Basic II DAC......still a contender?
Hey all,
I am wondering if this peice is still worth employing in my system or if a newer 1 box player may be better. Due to a disability money is really thin but I have a Sherwood Newcastle CD980 wich is new in box but is circa 98-99, it came DOA but Sherwood will repair free. I currently use a
AMC CD6 as a transport, with the Theta and a Monarchy DIP running with Mod Squad Wonderlink and Cardas Hexlink wires.
Do any of you have an opinion on if the Sherwood may be better? The Sherwood is 20 bit dual mono DAC while the Theta is 18 bit.
I know neither of these will turn many heads but at this point it is the best I can do, I know my ears would tell me but as the Sherwood is DOA any info or opinions would be great......thanks always Chad
