I am very happy with it. I was starting to investigate DAC's and was afraid I would need to spend $2000 or more when Stereophile had that nice endorsement, and my dealer got it in. It makes old CD's sound much more real, and with it my CD's approach the quality of the vinyl! The 294 with the
12" arm and the properly damped Grado Gold is very good...
Thanks, AJ!
