DAC Upgrade
Thinking it's time to upgrade my DAC. Here's the system:
Cyrus CD/t
Belles Aria integrated amp
Fritz Carbon 7 speakers
Schiit Gungnir dac
The Schiit can be upgraded to "multibit" for $500, thus making it an "Yggdrasil Junior."
Is the additional $500 (on top of the original $899) worth it, or am I better off selling the Schiit and taking that plus $500 and going with something else?
FWIW, I like Schiit's business model and that they're a (mostly) California-based company. Also, I'd prefer to buy American wherever possible.
I'll be the first to admit that I find the technical (and marketing) jargon elusive, particularly where DACs are concerned. I listen primarily to CD's.
Appreciate the input!
denafrips gear in designed and made in china, in guangzhou, an hour north of hong kong internationally, they are represented by vinshine audio which is based in singapore - they are in effect a direct sales outfit, entirely bypassing importers, distributors and dealers in the usa and europe, part of the reason why their prices are relatively low for their provided performance smile or frown, those are the facts |
