In Reply to: So, how do cheap DAC stack up? posted by TopPop on February 7, 2006 at 18:12:08:
Before you invest anything in a DAC, go to a Best Buy and pick up a Toshiba 3980 or 3990 for ~$50. I'll bet it surprises you. I'm sure there are exceptions, but most 1996 transports are not going to do well in a comparison (I had a $3,700 transport/DAC combo manufactured in 1996 and it can be bettered by a LOT of cheap, current CD/DVD players). Good luck.
