in an attempt to avoid being overly obsessive and audiophiley, i just went ahead and ordered the Emotiva. 300 bucks shipped and 30-day money back guarantee. I've never owned an external DAC and my digital front end is simply an Airport Express' analog output. I'll report back with impressions of the Emotiva vs. the APX, if anyone cares.
Hi james
Please do let us all know how you get on with the Emotiva as your first external DAC.
Not so easy to decide on a new DAC when you are basically happy with the one you have.
Could be a case of 'upgrading' to a different, but not necessarily better, sound/experience.
You mention 300 bucks shipped and 30 day money back guarantee.
Does that mean you are buying in the USA or importing to the UK or got a special deal from Item?
Look forward to hearing about your first impressions.
