Audionemesis DC-1 VLE


Hi

I was recommended this discontinued DAC by a friend in Europe. He says it sounds very analogue but I can find very few reviews of it.

Has anyone heard it? How does it compare to the PS Audio DL III?

Thanks

Thanks again Gregm.

How did it fare against the Symphonic Line? I have heard very good things about this CD player. It's meant to be very analogue sounding but it probably costs a lot more.

I am surprised you found the Mark Levinson strident. They have made very good digital in the past. Which model did you test?

Which DAC did you end up getting?
The SYmphonic Line was better. Better extension and foot-tapping "speed" as well as dynamics. (But at many times the price)
The ML was the top unit, 30.5 (I think - it was a couple of yrs ago). Not surprisingly it fared much better with a ML transport than with the TEAC -- but was still wistling through the speakers.
Please note that the problem was the response balance. It was strange...
