Has anyone used a Entech Cruncher 205.2 DAC? If so, how is it? Thanks

Meant TV as in HBO, Showtime, etc. Sounds much better then the analog connection. Given that you have a 20es cd player (I have dvp7700) I think you may want to look at a ead dsp7000 or bel canto as that would give you a jump above the sony whereas the entech is probably on par with the sony.

Both these cd players sound very good on their own, but the Entech 205.2 DAC gives both players a bigger soundstage, improved bass response, and overall more detail. I don't find it forward sounding at all. I really like it. Previously I owned an Audio Alchemy DDEv1.1 which was also very nice, but this is a step above. I think the Entech 203.2 will give a very similar sound.
