RE: CAL alpha DAC. UVC or EZ linestage?

Hi,

All I can say is that all options should sound fine in your context. The UVC with J-Fet buffer is very transparent and neutral, as are the TVC/AVC options. The TVC/AVC's in my experience do well on retaining dynamics when listening rather quietly, but it will be swings and roundabouts.

I do not think any one solution is dramatically better than the others (only true for the UVC BTW if the output is minimally loaded on the output).

At 20 bits, you are on the verge of dynamic range covering fly-farts-at-20-feet to intolerable pain. Really, what more could we need?
