Hi all-This is something that has been raked over the coals on head-fi.org, but I really would be interested to hear if any of you have experience with the following DACs:
Oritek modded Zhaolu D2.0A
Oritek modded Zhaolu D2.5A
Citypulse D7.2Folks on Head-fi have said that these DACs compete with / win over Lavry DA10, Benchmark DAC1... Not sure that I believe, but here in Boston I don't see any way I'm going to get a chance to listen to either one. While I do have upgrade-itis, I'm not likely to buy multiple Chinese DACs to audition. Bottom line would love to hear your experience with any of these.
Incidentally, I have a Creek 5350SE, XLO reference series 1 interconnects, transport is a Sonos ZP80, and speakers right now are Infinity Primus 360s.
Thanks for your help!
John
