any current integrated amps in market have great dacs?


I know built in dacs have historically have been a bit of an afterthought, currently looking at the Rotel Michi X3 series 2 as it has a nice chip set

any other integrated amps around the same price point  with a good dac built in?

great suggestion, I had the DA1 module in their d150 digital preamp , was very nice

 

 

I’d take a look at the Hegel H390.  Here’s a review where they found its internal DAC compared favorably to Hegel’s $4800 HD30 standalone DAC, which I thought was pretty impressive.

Just another option FWIW.

I will not hesitate to buy an amp with an integrated dac ...

The noise floor control will be easier... And it may  be more budget friendly ...

 

 

If you also listen to mqa the dac in the hegel h590 is really good. The chipset is no longer available (AKM) so the new model H600 uses the sabre 32 bit chipset. Can't speak for the new model but really like what I hear with the h590.

Some of the Moon integrated amps come with a DAC and are similar price point.

PS Audio Stellar Integrated if you can do class D

Peachtree also has integrated class D

Krell 300i can be had used for around $5k (might be a little more with a DAC)

And as mentioned , can't go wrong with Hegel gear.
