| DAC for entry level system The Emotiva DAC brand new priced at $400.00 and trial period. Well featured and solid build with remote control. I have the first edition with no experience with another but enjoy the music through it and question the need to spend more. | |
| Speakers for newbie Good suggestions given already. In your budget, if you can find them used, Daber Monitor 3 speakers or any in their line. Great under the radar brand. | |
| Does Mc Intosh make reference gear Taters, I disagree with your statement. Many elements and concerns go into making a device. It would be foolish of Mc or any other maker to have a device to simply last long and not be relevant in sonics. Bryston has a twenty year warranty on amps... | |
| M-Dac v.s. Mac D100 Looking forward to it. | |
| M-Dac v.s. Mac D100 Should you go with the D-100 or any other DAC please post as to your view of the difference or improvement over the XDA-1. Would like to know if an upgrade is indeed worth it. Good hunting. Glen | |
| M-Dac v.s. Mac D100 Have you checked the forums on the D100 at AudioAficionado.org? They may have more insight on the pluses and minuses of the D!00. I have the MA6600 myself and really love it. For a DAC I am using the Emotiva XDA-1, which the only unit I have ever ... | |

| New CD player or new external DAC ? The future in audio gear seems to be one that may require a DAC. Take your cd player to the dealer and ask them to hook it up to the BDA -1 and hear it for yourself. If no dramatic difference and you yet want to upgrade, get a cd player that inclu... | |
| B&K 507 has died. Thinking of going 2 channel? Ditto above if on a budget the Emotiva gear is hard to beat for the money. I have their small amp and a DAC. Tough to beat, new with warranty, and priced very well.You do not mention your budget but brands such as NAD and Anthem, Marantz would be ... | |
| Mcintosh MA 6600 or 2275 Few years back I faced the same dilemma, chose the MA6600. Not wanting to have the possible future expense of tube replacement in this stage of my life. I have be in heaven with the MA6600. Not only the addition of having the tuner module installe... | |
| Connecting DAC magic With 901 VI equalizer Connecting your gear assuming the amp has the proper amount of gain. Your digital source, say computer, cd player, into your DAC. Output of DAC feeding the main line input of your Bose equalizer, output to feed your amp. You will need a cable whic... | |
| Connect bluetooth receiver directly to tube amp Directly to the amp will work just fine. Should your DAC have a analog input, many don't, try it and see which you like best. | |
| Connecting DAC magic With 901 VI equalizer Assuming you indeed have the DAC Magic and not the DAC Magic plus that can act has a preamp. Yon don't mention having a separate preamp or receiver or such. Best advise would be to contact Bose which encourages one to do so with any special hook u... | |
