Accuphase dac 60


 

New guy posting here, lurking for awhile. I have a new Accuphase e380 integrated and love it. Thinking of getting the dac 60 card that goes with it. Thoughts, opinions please. Right now I have a ps audio digital link iii dac that is still going strong. What can I expect from a new modern dac?

 

not sure if this is the correct place to post this. TIA…

The output voltage of P.S.Audio XLR is quite high. So a lot of gain it contributes to your overall system gain. If the DAC 60 is around 3-3.5V or certainly less voltage, there’s the likely issue.

So basically, what would that translate in to volume, db level? Like around 10-15db higher on the volume for the dac 60 to equal the ps audio volume level?

thanks

I was unable to find specific output voltage information with regard to the DAC -60. “If” this is the DAC section taken from the Accuphase DP-60 (Minus the CD spinning mechanism) the output voltage is 2.5 voltage for RCA and XLR. So if this is the case, then a very significant 3 volt difference from the P.S. Audio. I don’t know why it’s so difficult to find the DAC 60 output voltage rating as it is worthwhile to know.
