| Benchmark DAC1 USB vs. Rega R Dac If you are referring to the DACs now being offered on AG and could swing it, why not buy both and explore what the sonic distinction between these DACs has to offer in your system. The one less desirable could be sold with little if any loss. The... | |
| The power amp part of my NAD 7150failed; what NAD power amp might I pair it with? +1 213runnin, stereo5.I would only purchase an amp if I was considering replacing the receiver in the near future.
