I've got the Bifrost and can tell you that running it with FLAC files is very noticeable (in a great way). However, I recently spent some time with a Chord Hugo and was amazed. There was a Chord Qute HD on here not long ago that is the same dac without the headphone side for $799. Well worth the money.
USB DAC question for neutral setup. Please help.
Hi
I have PC based stereo setup and i mostly use Flac/WAV files. My setup is fairly neutral, rather lacking on energy/excitement.
I am looking a good USB DAC in $600 price range, used or new, that can help improve the overall system and also impart some energy to it.
My top choices are Concero ($400used), Concero HD ($600used), Centrance Dacmini ($500 used), AMI Musik DDH-1($500 new).
These are the main ones, i am open to suggestions for others within this price too.
Audition is not an option so i need some help in deciding what to do?
Needs to go along with the setup and improve it also impart some energy.
Regards
