Enlightened Audio designs


hey Guys,
A buddy of mine just gave me a Enlightened Audio Designs DAC model DSP 7000. I have a Music Hall 25.2. The EAD gives me the ability to play HCCD,which I'm listening to right now..pretty sweet. regular cd's eh..ok. What do I have here, worth keeping in my system or just let the Music Hall do the talking?

Tex, is the a DSP-7000 Mk.I, II, or III? They are all good (I've owned all three), but if you have a Mk.III then you've got the last and best version. I still use it, and like Jsadurni have compared it against many other units.

More importantly maybe, for you, is that Greg Palma at Noble Electronics still services and also does awesome upgrades to EAD gear. Greg was one of the original engineers at EAD back in the day, so he knows how to care for and hop up these units. He tricked out my Mk.III and, as good as it was before it went in, it came back with a higher level of tranparency and extension. It had held its own against some great DACs before it went in. I'm not sure now why I'd *ever* be getting rid of it.
Tony,
Its a MKI, I googled Noble, looks like something I'll do down the line. Thanks for the heads up
Ask him if he still has any remaining original upgrade kits for the Mk.I. These were designed by EAD for EAD owners to bring it up to a Mk.II. Not too difficult to do youself if you have a little skill with a soldering iron.

A tiny bit :-) Any idea of the cost?
Just a short note to also praise the repair capabilities of Noble Design. I sent my Theatermaster amp to them for repair. SErvice was prompt and reasonable.
