I have a Kinergetics KCD-55 Ultra DAC from the early 90s that uses the rare and expensive UltraAnalog 20 bit DAC modules (it made this model nearly double the price of it's sister that used the also very good Burr Brown PCM-63K DAC). BUT the output stage broke. So now I have a Lampizator Amber output stage that I am tapping off of the DACs. I haven't got it all working yet (some technical issues) but I think it is gonna be my last DAC. I also have the Monarchy Audio M24 DAC, which is also superb (BB PCM63K chips tube output, no opamps or transistors) but I think the Kinergetics will beat it. - morricabI have a Stax quattro 2 CDP from that era that I was very fond of , very non digital sounding ....havent used in years , should re-cap and give it a go again ...
