DAC to pair with Eversolo DMP-A6

Hi. Looking for recs to add a DAC to this unit to complete my system. Currently running a McIntosh MA252 > Eversolo > JBL L100 Classics. Looking to spend under 3K I'd say. Thanks!

@cbowie88 these kind of experimentations should be done with gear that can be returned. but imo not worth the hassle. the DAC in the A6 is competent

More component (DAC + IC cable) will add more distortion and sounds worsen.

My WT amp ultra (upgraded Wiim amp ultra) is a solid improvement. It comes with a world-class power cord (5ft) attached. One more thing to save money. One small box and a pair speakers are all you need. The sound is a world-class too. A smart audio system that'll last for a long time. Alex/Wavetouch audio

Great thread as I'm looking to acquire a DMP-A6 Gen 2 and was wondering if adding a Topping D90 (AKM chip) would be worth adding an extra component in my modest setup...Parasound A23, Schitt Saga+, KEF 104/2s.

What specific improvements are you looking for, what sound characteristics are most important to you, and are you looking for new or used?

Denafrips Pontus 15th, with those speakers my guess is you will like the R2R DAC much better than the onboard DAC. I have both and you will notice a substantial improvement in sound stage (depth and width) and holographic presentation.
