OK, so I feel like a kid wandering into a Ferrari showroom to discuss tricycles, but what the hell...
My "main HiFi" is nothing special -- a Touch, an old Limit turntable, a Marantz amp and a pair of Monitor Audio speakers -- but it's good enough for the ears of a whacked-out bass player. I recently bought a small, very cheap ICS media player from China with the intention of turning it into a Squeezebox; overall, this little project went way better than expected, but the analog out isn't very good. I thought I'd try using the digital out instead, and this is why I'm here. First time DAC user alert! Amazon have the FiiO D3, the Neet and the Cablesson SAP-3 for less than 30 quid, and also the Lindy at about 35. They all look similar, and according to specs do pretty much the same job. The small number of reviews I've been able to find concentrate on the hardware rather than the sound, so aren't much use. Does anyone have any advice about which of these things to buy, mostly for messing about and testing the "Shenzbox"?
