MF X-DAC

Can one hook up a Musical Fidelity X-DAC between my computer and a Naim preamp to improve the sound, or is this limited to CD use? Are there other DACs recommended that won't break the bank? (It will be for passive listening, so isn't necessary for a primary system.)

MF V-DAC is very good in this application, you can get one on 30 day trial. List is $299 but I think soneone was offering them for $250. Used would be even cheaper. Beats many much more expensive DACs. I have never had an X-DAC so can"t help you there.

yes, you can. But you may need an USB to Coax converter, such as the MF V-Link to hook it up.
