Forte F-50A DAC

I owned this DAC about 5 years ago. I can't help you on the specs, but I'll let you know that I didn't like the sound of this DAC at all. On the other hand, the Forte Model 50, which is its predecessor, is a wonderful sounding DAC.

I also owned both and had the opposite opinion as Rayhall, strongly preferring the F-50A. Chalk it up to system matching, personal preferences etc. I would, however, characterize both as dated, and nothing special compared to contemporaries from other brands at their time of production. Nothing wrong with these DACs, but they won't do much to improve decent single disc players of today.

Thanks for your opinions. Do you guys think if it is worth to buy the Forte F-50A Dac. I have the Sony DVP-NS999ES now. I'm thinking to buy this Dac because it has the balance output, so i can hook up to my DK design integrated amp.
Thanks a lot,
Nam
