Denafrips Terminator R2R Multibit, ultimate pcm redbook converter??

"This is the lowest priced discrete ladder dac with high bit rate ability--- that exists on the planet right now. I don’t expect the price to ever get any lower".
  The Terminator is a dac R2R with four counters of 500 high-precision 0.005% laser-cut resistors, with a nominal resolution of 26bit, capable of reproducing both PCM format up to 384khz and DSD up to 11.2Mhz (DSD256) in native mode.

@jaybe , the T+A dac isn't R2R, it uses Burr-Brown dac chips, it's a delta sigma dac.

Good article on NOS vs OS (all delta-sigma dacs oversample):

the Soekris 1541 should be badass.

Hello,

the best Machines for Red Book is Ultra Analog/ PCM 63 Dacs from the 90th.
Sonic Frontiers /Spectral/Theta /Monarchy...etc sounds really good to my Ears.


Best Regards,

P..S The Soekris is real good for the Money...

So the unknown question is how good is the Terminator compared to everything else?  Not enough people have it yet, but from reading Headfi, there are some people with it on the way.  The lower end Denafrip is getting high praise though, so it would stand to reason the Terminator is pretty good based on how good the lower end model performs

Ultra Analog/  PCM 63 Dacs

Ther are also R2R Multibit dacs.
