Best DAC’S $5k to $15k


I have Chord Mscaler and TT2 and it’s very good. I’ve been considering the DAVE. Any recommendations?

I have DAVE and M-scaler. they are excellent.  Better than great.  Spectacular.    that said, I'd like to hear some of the other responses to this thread.

Given your positive experience with the Chord Mscaler and TT2, the Chord DAVE could be a great choice within your budget. It’s known for its exceptional sound quality and performance. 🎧 Dog blog 🎶 However, I recommend auditioning it if possible to ensure it meets your preferences.

There are obviously many great DACs in that wide price range so it’d be most helpful to know what specific improvements and sound characteristics you’re looking for in order to suggest other DACs that might be worth considering.
