RE: Want to get back into audio, and looking to upgrade

I've quite enjoyed my Line Magnetic 502CA DAC.
I am writing a review of it (I've had it for about 8 months). Anyway - it's very good for both Redbook CD and computer audio. I was quite pleased by the latter especially at the price.

It is switchable for both tube and SS (the former sounds better). It has pretty much all the connections you would want. It;s not a CD player but in most cases all budget CD player transports come from the same budget sources - so not a lot of standouts if any so you may as well just use anything that is fairly decent that has digital outs (which is practically everything). I might be under promoting how good this DAC actually is and how it will likely fly under the radar.

It has been reviewed by a couple of magazines apparently.
