Holographic DAC With Air And Decay


Like the title says what’s your vote for favorite Dac when it comes air, decay and three dimensional soundstage?  Looking at 3k or less used. I tend to prefer R2R and, or tubes.  I suppose I'm open to other options as long as it sounds smooth and refined. As always I look forward to all your input, thanks!

Denafrips Pontus II fed by an IRIS in front + Klipschhorns powered by a good SET.

@fsonicsmith +10!!!

it’s not really about the dac as you correctly state. I have an old Topping D50 that lets the air through very nicely if it is present in the recording AND coupled to the right speakers

thoughts on the Geshelli Labs Dayzee? Going to Capital Audiofest and excited to have a listen...

It probably depends on the custom build, but the boards are socketed, so you can roll op amps like you do with tubes to (hopefully) create the sound you're looking for.

I will keep it simple and encourage you to do your own research regarding this DAC. Consider a used Lampizator Amber 3 or 4.
