If you go used, a Cambridge Audio D500SE is in your price range. It is a huge improvement over the older model HK I changer I used previously. If you own an old CDP with a digital out, you might consider an ART DI/O DAC. You can get one used here or new on the Internet for $200 or less plus the cost of cables and adapters. Requires the CDP have a BNC or RCA digital out. I now have that in my main system connected to a Sony DVP-S7700. Much better sound than the DVPs DACs. I don't know how it compares with the MSB, Datastream, or other DACs I have seen here in that price range.
300 disk W/ outboard DAC or single play W good dac
Hello everyone. I am going to be buying a new CDP sometime soon and i have been thinking of buying either a sigle play Cambridge Audio D300 or a NAD C521 which are bolth exceptional players, Or trying something like a sony 300 disk player with an outborad DAC. I dont really want to spend more than $275 on this and i dunno how much good DAC's cost. What would you suggest? Any other players to look at?
The rest of my system is:
NAD C-370 amp
JBL ND310 speakers
Clarity Wires "foxfore" IC
Thank you
