there are so many different models to choose....
From Wadia to ???
Recently owned a Wadia 381. However, i sold it to buy a usb dac.
As usual with Wadia, algorithm A is Wadias own and also what i preferred.
To you who are much better at me, what brand/ model is closest to Wadia sound ideal, without the cost of a Wadia?
Might add that i look for a dac with pre-amp feature (XLR).

@rird Your Wadai that you like the sound of has Multibit conversion. With the 4 x PCM1704 dac chips. WADIA 381i 4 x PCM1704-K + 2 x DSP56004FJ50 StreamUnlimited I suggest you look for a dac that uses the same or similar Multibit conversion technology. Here is a list go through it and find something that uses PCM1704 dacs then go on line and see if it does usb. Mostly only hiend dacs only use the PCM1704 today http://vasiltech.narod.ru/CD-Player-DAC-Transport.htm Here are 4 from the A's
AQUA ACOUSTIC LA SCALA 4 x PCM1704-K It's a DAC AQUA ACOUSTIC LA SCALA MKII 4 x PCM1704-K + XMOS USB It's a DAC AQUA ACOUSTIC LA VOCE TDA1541-R1 / AD1865N-K / 2 x PCM1704 It's a DAC AQUA ACOUSTIC LA VOCE S2 TDA1541-R1 / AD1865N-K / 2 x PCM1704 It's a DAC Cheers George |
