Rega Saturn + Dac
Same case... I compared Saturn through REGA DAC and the differences were subtle, maybe none at all but this "test" could be flawed because: -The AC power cord in the Saturn is far superior to REGA DAC. -The IC in the Saturn also is better. -I have not tested the different filters in the... -
