@jasonbourne71 I guess you didn't see the words no delta sigma dacs.

That reminds me to mention the Allnic D-15000 Signature OTL/OCL it is super expensive at $26k but one of the most detailed DACs, and it is holographic via tubes. Not a common combination. I like the imersiv D-1 more, but I think the Allnic would be more popular for most people. There is a new lower cost Allnic lineup called the ASRA (all items under $10k) that is supposed to have a DAC very similar to the Allnic D-15000 Signature OTL/OCL. It could be great because I heard the $6.5k ASRA headphone amp at Denver and it was very close to the $15k Allnic HPA 15000 OTL/OCL that I am demoing at home now with the Meitner MA3i.
EDIT: Ignore since these are ESS chip-based DACs |
@foggyus91 what do you think of the LessLoss DACs? Looks intriguing. Have seen much on them |
