What is the best DAC ever made?

I can't speak to what Alex is or isn't doing. I currently have his prototype Super-DAC and am breaking it in.

I've read a number of positive things about Audio Note DACs and am still wondering if anyone either has one or has heard one.

Thanks.

Hi Fplanner2010,

I have an AN 4.1X Balanced DAC...it mesmerizes me. It's listed in my system.

Best,
Sam

Dacbuyer -- you used the Ayre with USB, but was was your source and method of connection with the other DACs?

Thanks Sam. Bill - give it a rest.

USB to Ayre and to Scarlatti when using upsampler, otherwise optical out from Mac Mini.
