Accuphase dac 60

 

New guy posting here, lurking for awhile. I have a new Accuphase e380 integrated and love it. Thinking of getting the dac 60 card that goes with it. Thoughts, opinions please. Right now I have a ps audio digital link iii dac that is still going strong. What can I expect from a new modern dac?

 

not sure if this is the correct place to post this. TIA…

True, AKM chips sound warmer, closer to tube.

"In my opinion, AKM is sonically superior to ESS"

agreed 100%, the best DAC I have is dual AK4499EQ design with class A discrete bal/unbal outputs

thanks, good to know. I wish I had the time, energy and money to try a bunch of dac’s, but I don’t.

just going to stick with the dac 60 when it gets back to me.

glad you found the culprit to the weird behavior!

once your dac 60 card is back and making music like it is supposed to, i am sure you will enjoy the music even more than with the psa d-link...

all the best!
