Theta dac
« on: 10 Sep 2017, 02:08 pm »
Hello,
I have the GRACE DESIGN m125 pre/dac.
Love it!
Recently I have been offer an external dac at a very good price in pristine condition with orginal box and manual.
It is the Theta DS PRO BASIC lllA dac. Yes I know it is an older piece of equipment, but I have read several outstanding reviews.
I wanted to know if anyone has had experience with this particular dac and what they thought about it.

I appreciate all comments since I am seriously considering the purchase of this MB dac comparing it to the dac of the GRACE using SABRE chips.

Thank you, Frank

  • To whom more was given more will be required.
    • Never go to a psychiatrist, adopt a straycat or dog. On the street they live only two years average.

Hard to say as you dont mention sale price, or if you are a stringent audiophile, DACs tend to obsolete a bit fast today, but please note Personal Touch purpose is:

I can't comment on the DAC in question but must agree with FRM that this thread belongs in the "The Discless Circle".

Perhaps the facilitator can move it over there for bluemeanies where he's likely to get a better response.  I haven't heard the Theta DAC in so long any opinion I presented on its sound quality wouldn't be valid.  But it might be a good counterpoint to your modern Sabre chip decoder.

It's all good, blue.  Hope you find the answer you are looking for.  Theta DACs are very highly regarded.
