Could be, but I have two Marantz products in my system...

An older Marantz DV9600, which I use as my main Silver Disc Spinner and a newer but now also obsolete Network Player NA7004. Both have so-called HDAM output circuitry involved somehow in the headphone output and both act as great headphone amps for my HD600.

In fact, for a time I was using the NA7004 as my office system USB DAC/Headphone Amp and found it to be outstanding driving the HD600.

Now that I have figured out a way to get Ethernet up to my main system, I use the NA7004 mostly for its Air Play capability.

If indeed the HD-DAC1 has an even BETTER headphone output than my two Marantz units (not sure it's not the same circuit) then it is surely worth a look.


First they came for the dumb-asses
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a dumb-ass
