Behringer DEQ mods?

Undertow-
I checked out your system. I was thinking about trying the Dac Lite Ah as an external Dac. How do you like yours?

Well I have the highest version of it now costing about 400 from them.. it has mundorf coupling caps, better opamps, several other caps and mods thru pacific valve, I like it a lot, very smooth and musical, very close to analog, basically it is better than the standard DAC Ah no doubt, but the original is the best for the money.. I have owned all variations of it now, including the mid level upgrades, all were very good overall.

How much better is the mid-level, than the standard? For only $70 more I'd give it a shot, if there's much difference at all.
For the price & the 30 day return, it would be hard to go wrong.

Umm, well the mid level upgrade has a smoother presentation, but is a bit more laid back, you will lose a tiny bit of gain, like the voltage out is slightly different or something with the different op amps, but it does sound a bit sweeter… The bass is probably slightly more Wooly sounding and not as clean on the standard 150 dollar version, but sometimes with thinner recordings the Wooly bottom sound can help too, so it’s a toss up with which one will be more synergistic with your system honestly.. Voice is probably just more analog sounding with the mid level upgrade, it is less forward I believe.

Thanks again for your response. With the return policy, I may buy both and keep the one I like most.
