New DACs High End Munich 2023
I am now searching for a new DAC to replace my Oppo UDP-205 and High End Munich 2023 was the event I was waiting for to hear about new announcements.
I know that Auralic and Total DAC have introduced new DACs and Primare has new modules. Anyone hear any other DACs being released in the next 2-3 months?

yyzsantabarbara, After listening thru the 3 FPGA "tunings" of late on my Pontus II, I agree...very nice to have a manufacture/distributer that offers free upgrades and tries to accommodate differing ears. The FPGA programing can create quite different sounding output. The I2s/HDMI connection to my OPPO 85 was a main reason for the purchase...very satisfied! |
@old_ears sorry to correct you but the Pontus II is not FPGA based - it is an R2R design. |
@acmaier3 The Pontus II is indeed an R2R DAC, but the ladder is controlled by an FPGA chip that has 3 different firmware editions available with different sound outputs. |
