Something like the Poth Audio Dac Ah $175 shipped would eat the stock Denon for breakfast. Hearing the difference would be VERY noticeable. If you don't hear the difference for the better. There's a bottle neck some where else in the system. Going the Dac route will allow you the ability to listen to multi-channel through your multi-outs on the player without interfering with your 2ch through the Dac. Some modders do away with the multi-channel and concentrate on two channel performance when modding players.
What will a DAC do for me?
I have two DVD players, one a Panasonic HDR-M80 and a Denon DVD-1920 that I also listen to CD's on. What would a DAC do for me? Would one really help or am I wasting bucks?I have been looking at some used ones around the $400-600 range. What brands would you recommend that I could pick up? Thanks.
I also love to play multi-channel music on the DVD. Just thought I would throw that in.
The rest of the audio part of my system:
Sherbourne seperates
Paradigm Studio 40's front and rear
Paradigm CC470
Paradigm PW2200
