Sorry redundant Best DAC under 600.

Thanks

From hearing it at Axpona this year, not to mention the positive feedback I read about them here ..... look into a Denafrips Ares. 
I think the HiFi-Skÿn (and a few other products using the 4490 off-shelf chip) have taken the D/S sound as far as it can go, at reasonable cost. That is, in my opinion, I don’t think there is much further sound quality to be gained from off-shelf products until you spend $2000 or more. The HiFi-Skÿn is the sweet spot. The HiFi-Skÿn is quite good, and quite worth its cost by that relative comparison.

Contact Tommy at the Digital Amplifier Company and ask about his DAC DAC in the High Spec (HS) version. He just released the Gen 2 and is taking trade ins on the Gen 1 towards the Gen 2, and selling off the trade in Gen 1’s at a deep discount. Every traded in Dac goes on his bench and is put through a multitude of tests and brought up to spec if needed. I have a Gen 1 and have no need to move to the Gen 2 since I use tube gear. The DAC DAC is extremely musical with loads of detail. I believe each DAC DAC comes with a 30 day no hassle return policy.
Check them out and don’t miss out on this awesome opportunity!
