"There was some debate about whether anybody can hear the differences above a good Chi-Fi DAC like the Topping D90. Unless you are missing most of your high-frequency hearing, you can hear where a high-end DAC makes a difference."
The Bricasti M3 is a great example of that performance in a $6,000 DAC that can deliver that master tape-like sound from your digital rig, even when fed by a modest BlueSound Node."
"The Benchmark DAC3 B is an audiophile DAC, with pro audio roots, that punches way above its weight."
"The Bricasti M19 is the most wonderfully over-engineered spinner of silver discs."
"The Weiss Helios DAC was so good that Jim Swantko bought it to go with his Pass Labs XP-22 preamp and CH Precision M1.1 amp."
"The T+A DAC 200 is one of the coolest, most fantastically engineered products from Germany."
"There were so many worthy candidates for Best Digital of 2024."
