I just finished doing my testing. I played Dire Straits 'Your Latest Trick' twice. Once in FLAC and once in WAV. It sounded great both times. The good news is that I got to hear a great song twice. The bad news is that I had to waste my time re-ripping the track to WAV. Actually I had to be careful because I own the original and remixed copied of 'Brothers In Arms' so I had to make sure to use the same source twice. Funny thing is that I prefer the original to the remix - maybe because I owned and listened to the original for over ten years before getting the remix. I guess that's why I bought the Benchmark DAC1, because I had preffered the sound of my Adcom GCD-575 to any CD player that I've ever heard. I figured that the GCD-575 probably isn't the best CD player in the world - I think that I preffered it because I was most familier with it. So I bought the DAC1 figuring that once I got used to it it would be my preffered digital source and I could use it with the SB3, SB4 and even the SB5:) Actually, I'm not really sure what I am trying to say. Maybe I should have just kept these thoughts to myself.
