Advice on a budget R2R DAC
If you want a essential part , theFinal touch audio USB cable absolutely the most musical -Analog digital cable I have heard,and own,Retail $860 call Rob at Lampizator system dependent not much so ,but if your-system is really warm then for much ruler flat neutral, the new Wireworld platinum 8 USB,even better lower price around $600. I heard the proto type a month ago.it should be out now. |
auxinput : you're right... quite a lot... but some people,didn't take the time to read my criteria and their proposition is irrelevant (I ask for r2r), other propose tube dac although I specified I didn't want tubes... I also realise that I've hurt feelings criticizing some dac... but hey I just try to express what I'm looking for (and NOT looking for) ... as for the Audio GD, the R2R7 was on my list, but too expensive... I'll check the R-28 for sure... thx... BTW, my budget is 1,5k Canadian $ (about 1,2k US$) |
