Researching available DAC options has me stumped, and so I turn to the forum members for some suggestions! It gets tricky based on these rather specific list of requirements:
1. Must be a genuine audiophile grade DAC.
2. Must have balanced outputs.
3. Preferably have minimal frills and be simple.
4. Preferably be a DAC only. Not looking for a pre/headphone amp or streamer.
It's worth noting that my first choice would be to purchase the Marantz SA-10 SACD player and utilize it's digital input and DAC, mostly because it would match the PM-10 integrated amplifier. The cost of the SA-10 is simply ludicrous.
Thoughts and suggestions appreciated. :thinking:
