Hi Julius, happy to help. What are your digital sources? That’ll really help me answer your question. Are you streaming from a computer and/or TV, or will your stereo be more self-contained? Once I know, I can make a more informed suggestion.
KEF LS50 Wireless Internal vs External DAC ??
I am finding my KEF LS50 Wireless to sound warmer, fuller, and more spacious, with better resolution of image location, when running my streamer (Audio Alchemy DMP-1/PS-5 power supply) to Audio Alchemy DDP-1 DAC/Preamp into its RCA inputs (which are then internally converted via ADC and again DAC) than I am running my streamer direct to the speakers via USB.
Given the numerous redundant conversions at play, I speculate that the ADC conversion is so much more transparent than I imagined and that the internal DAC in the KEFs is so much worse than I expected that I would recommend others use a high-quality external DAC with these speakers (even if they are to be internally re-DACed within them).
Anyone have this experience?? Thoughts??
