King of the Non oversampling DAC's? Lavry /Kondo ?

MHDT Havana, I agree with the above who mentioned that.

Great DAC.

Yes I've had the pleasure of using both, kept the Lavry 924 the longest (loved those little built-in ovens!) and the stupidest thing I did was sell the Lavry. Just listen to a lot more analog.
This is saying a lot since I import Kondo!!!!!!
Kondo DAC did have a bit more "earthy" character

Hi Sksos1!
Nice to hear that you have owned both.
OK, Kondo has a more earthy character, could you be more precise in what sense the Lavry Gold might be better?
for example : bigger soundstage, 3-dimensional, Slam energy, dynamic contrast, emotional musical etc. ??

The failure of both DAC's to handle 24/192 bit depth/sampling rate is enough for me to pass on them. I have 24/192 sources. Wouldn't sound as good at 24/96 downsampled. At the price of the Lavry, I would buy the Berkeley Audio Design DAC that can handle that bit depth/sampling frequency. The Kondo is obviously way over priced, imo.

Rockitman, specs are specs. sometimes they matter, often they don't. BADA's a good DAC, but i wouldn't necessarily rule out the 2 (as well as other highly regarded non oversampling DACs) simply because they don't handle 24/192.

& as with Rademaker, i'm also interested in Sksos1's view of Lavry Gold vs. Kondo DAC, & Lavry Gold vs. analog.
