What about an upgraded Oppo like this one (not affiliated with the seller). https://www.audiogon.com/listings/da-converters-exemplar-tube-oppo-105-with-every-upgrade-2017-06-20-digital |
Esoteric, Marantz excellent choices, if your thinking DAC, and want a transport that will outlive you, I suggest a Pioneer V7400 industrial DVD, CD. Best kept secret, you can buy them on ebay around $100 bucks. I just bought one for a headphone set up, really nice! The laser is rated for like 36000 hrs. |
I've had , let's say - "mixed" experiences with modded units in the past. So I was hoping to find something solidly engineered from the start. The HDCD factor - are there DACs that will decode that? Any recommendations? Thanks for your input, it's truly appreciated!!!! Audiogon is a resource of the highest quality! |
