Good morning / afternoon / evening.
I'm a music lover based in New Zealand. I've assembled a reasonable system to listen to computer based music and streaming via JRiver.
I have come into some money and would like to significantly upgrade my Lampizator DAC. It has been very enjoyable however want to head down another pathway.
There are no stockist of high-end DACs in NZ so I am unable to listen to anything prior to purchase.
Based on extensive online research I'm currently looking at the EMM Labs DA2, or the Totaldac D1-seven or D1-direct.
Has anyone ever done a direct comparison and can describe the differences in sound characteristics, or is able to separately describe the 'house sound' of each?
You contributions are appreciated.
Thanks
Murray
