Hello everyone,
After many years, I desire to upgrade my titan of a DAC i.e. The Weiss Minerva.
Since, I presently own a Denafrips ares 2 along with Weiss and I have come to understand that chip or R2R really doesn't matters, many other things makes a goo sounding DAC inter-alia power supply, clock, complication at the output stage etc.
For upgrade I am looking at a DAC, with good power supply and a Tube output stage which can double up as a preamplifier. As stated above not fussy about R2R/chip based etc etc.
What are my options and their domestic availability ? I am okay with DIY also.
Budget around 1.5 lakhs.
Thanks in advance.
