I am also looking for a new DACs under the Euro 1.000 mark. I can find these options: Lavry Engineering Lavry Black DA 10 http://www.lavryengineering.com/productspage_da_10.html Benchmark DAC1 http://www.benchmarkmedia.com/dac1/ Musical Fidelity X-DACv3 http://www.musicalfidelity.com/products/smlx/xdacv3.html CI Audio VDA2 http://www.ciaudio.com/ Otherwise there are a lot of used alternatives, but I would prefer a new one. Used I can mention Theta, Mark Levinson, Audio Alchemy, MSB, dCS, Wadia, Proceed, Denon, Parasound, dpa, Meridian, Krell. But most of these are more expensive and I doubt that they are as good 10 years after production as the new ones are, with exceptions ofcause. If you have any other alternatives please say so! -- L.B. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ L.B.'s Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11232 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=15673
