I just opened the boxes, and they are gorgeous. Pics will be taken tomorrow, and posted tomorrow night. They look great.
Both units have spent the last few days being thoroughly tested by Doug Goldberg, and passed with flying colors. Doug is thrilled at what both can do.
The combo will replace the Denon 2900 universal player, which was heavily modded by Underwood Wally, and a Mcintosh MS-6900 amp in my high end theater.
Starting tomorrow, this $400 worth of DAC and electronics will be driving the $2000 Dana 930's and a $3000 Def Tech Trinity.
And none other than Nuance of "Seeking the perfect speaker" fame from AVS forum will be here on Saturday.
Here are the specs on Dac-Man:
DacMan is a 24bit / 192 KHz D/A converter.
Features USB input, optical input, and coax input.
The inputs are fed to a DSP which upsamples the audio input to 24 bit / 192 KHz digital data.
The output of the upsampler is fed to a high performance D/A converter and then to a fully DC coupled high performance audio stage.
Frequency Response = 10Hz to 100KHz +/- .5dB
THD = .<005% across entire frequency range
Output with 0dB Full scale input = 3V RMS
Volume Control, 50 dB dynamic range with .5 dB steps
Price is $279 delivered.
