Yes, yes and no. A great DAC will improve your system. But they cost $1000 on up. Benchmark DAC-1 is a classic example. The DAC built into a SB3 is decent, as good as you should expect in a $200 device, after all the SB3 is just a display, cpu and a $200 DAC. They are trivial to plug and play. But I have zero expectations that something in the £100 - £150 price range will do any good. -- Pat Farrell http://www.pfarrell.com/ _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
