Has anyone got any concrete information about whether or not this DAC has been improved in any meaningful way, since it was launched in 2013? I'm not understanding how this is new. What am I missing here?
Lab 12 DAC1 Special Edition
Terry London’s review of this DAC is online now at hometheaterreview.com

From Greece..."using the famous NOS Phillips TDA 1543 DAC chips ... it also uses a NOS 6922 vacuum tube in its analog conversion circuit."

Update...I had the wonderful opportunity and pleasure to listen to Jay’s Audio CDT2-Mk2 Transport and the Lab12 DAC1 SE combo in @teajay Terry London’s system which is anchored by the Tekton Ulfberth speakers. For those of you considering the Lab12 DAC1 SE (or the Jay’s Audio Transport), both of which have been recently reviewed by @teajay over at hometheaterreview.com .... Terry’s review of both of these components is on the mark!!! I was not able to A/B vs equivalent components or audition the same in a different system, however, I can say with confidence, that should your music genres and preferences align or overlap with Terry’s you will likely be extremely pleased with their performance. At their price points, both are phenomenal buys. |
