I tried every which way, but my old trusted DAC was just as good as the new much more expensive DAC.
I was very disappointed
And I have to say it will be a long time before buy another.
I just spent many thousands on a few new interconnects. And that old DAC is still getting better. Along with one of my TT.
he other TT and phono box hit the 'wall' and is a mystery why, other than it is just not nearly as good. Where I thinkthe CD playback took a huge step to better...
One thng I look at the reviews of DACs, and Hell, they all still have the same stairstep image. In fact the Recent Bryston 3 has plenty of ringing on each step. Is THAT supposed to be 'better'?? I guess my now fifteen year old DAC is still just as good.
