AMR DP-777. Amazing analog sounding DAC with tube input (on SPDIF), R-2R (on redbook and 96 kHz), AND delta-sigma (on hi-res).

bo1972 Patricia Barber, Diana Krall recordings-YUK! I heard that Lumin makes very fine DAC streamers but if it were based on those recordings, I couldn't trust it. Try some 50's-60's jazz or classical (or even pop that was well recorded and mastered). Then I have a basis for comparison. When I bring great music to stereo shows, people stop and listen. Great sounding systems mesmerize listeners. |
Shouldn‘t the goal for any set-up be neutrality and transparency?In that case my vote goes to the Zodiac Platinum. I think that NOS Euphonics are ultimately a dead end and the Zodiac‘s upsampling actually allows for shifting filters away from the audible spectrum. The result is a very transparent and uncoloured presentation. BTW the best way to assess a DAC is solo piano because of its reach harmonic spectrum, overtone decay and Impulse. |
