The Cullen PS stomps all over the Benchmark. The Benchmark has a treadbare, cold sound with bass that is lacking in weight and extension. The Cullen has no competition at its price point that I know of.
PS Audio DLIII Cullen Mod IV versus Benchmark DAC1
Which would you prefer? My system could probably use a touch of warmth but I value accuracy and dynamics. Don't "need" USB but it may prove useful down the road. Don't need the pre functionality of the Benchmark, but the headphone amp is a nice to have.
