Considering purchasing a used GDA-600 - would it be any better than the DAC in my AVC-1800 processor?? I may get it anyway to go between a SB or computer - any opinions would be welcome!!

  Bullet, the Adcom has a 20 bit DAC while your Parasound uses a 24 bit DAC. I use a Channel Islands VDA-2 for both my Sony and Oppo digital sources to make them sound better. You probably should look into one of the available DACs with a USB interface if you are going to use it with your computer. DIYEDEN and Scott Nixon come to mind.

    Thanks - not familiar with either of those - but will do a little research...
