In Reply to: DACs, DACs, DACs!!!!!!! ???? Why are there so few good ADCs? posted by Timbo in Oz on November 13, 2016 at 13:20:16:
There are a decent number of assembled ADCs.
Benchmark, Ayre, Mytek, quite a few commercial units from the best known companies, and for the budget purchasers the HRT LineStreamer+ for around $300.
The HRT is limited to 24/96 and you need to control the volume, as it doesn't have it's own built-in.
I have digitized about 200 vinyl LPs and a few live concerts broadcast over satellite radio. I have been very happy with the results. 24/96 flac files sound really good, depending on the source.
The HRT would probably be cheaper than the kit.
