Elberoth2,
What was the basic concept of their point system?

DAC Magic or MF V-DAC?
Second system consists of Wadia 170i Ipod transport to analog tube integraded amp (PrimaLuna Prologue Two).
Looking for D/AC in the $500 range. Seems everyone has positive thoughts on both the DAC Magic and MF V-DAC units.
In that price range, am I correct in thinking this is the two logical options? If so, could you steer me in either direction?
Thanks in advance for any comments.

I am using it as a decoder in a conventional 2 channel with Meridian transport. I spent 4 hours ABing it with my Audio Synthesis DAX tonight. By pure chance I eventually discovered that transferring the Oyade GPX power cord to the Meridian transport from the DAX made considerably more difference than switching between DACs. I am more than happy with the Meridian- GPX -V DAC but think there is still room for improvement so my wife is getting me a Little Pinkie V power supply for Christmas. The V Dac was also good for computer use, beating the rest at this also. |
How about Audio Sector's non-oversampling DAC? The kit is $330 for SPDIF. Less for USB. Assembled is $80.00 more. Not shown on Peter's site but still available. It is very similar to ~$1,300 Altmann Attraction DAC but ~1/4 the cost. Which is better? Here is One discussion |
I had a V-DAC and then bought a DAC Magic and I preferred the DAC Magic and so did everyone else and the I returned the V-DAC. The sound was fuller, it had a better soundstage, and I thought the detail was much clearer. That said, I know there's someone reading this right now who thinks the exact opposite :) |
