What the Best Dac have you heard or owned. How could you tell it was that good.


I wondered what’s the best sounding dac you have heard or owned. What did it do that the others didn’t.

@kairosman great points.  Try to explain that to some folks and they think we are being uppity.  When you have great components you got to feed it the best you can through the entire system. A lot of the time it will require a substantial investment. Like getting a high end dac. 

Audio By Van Alstine Insight multibit dac from 2008.  Very musical, non fatiguing dac  that I can listen to for hours on end. Best part was I paid $320 for it delivered. 

Ergo, folks who pronounce that there is no point period in a $25K DAC don’t own a high-end system and should avoid making blanket statements about expensive hifi gear if they want to avoid sounding like the guy with the smallest *yacht at the posh Palm Beach yacht club.

I am still laughing at your comment that you think the guy with the smallest yacht at a posh yacht club would care what you or anyone else thinks about him.  And insinuating that those with less expensive systems who love our music care where we are in some imaginary pecking order.
