I've been looking at setting up a laptop as a music center - and I've been looking around at DAC's that would improve the quality of the output.
I've got around $300 at the outside and I was wondering if the following 2 would be good?
$250 - usb only KingRex from Coem Audio - (http://www.coemaudio.com.au/Sources/DACs/)
$312 - Beresford (http://i-hear.com.au/ProductDetails.aspx?ID=3).
I've read a few negative things about Stan Beresord from a while ago - but before that I had talked to the guy in AU selling the Beresford, and he seemed quite a standup guy (recommended ASIO4ALL to improve the digital stream coming into the DAC too).
I was wondering if anyone has heard either of these DAC's and could comment on them? Also, if anyone knows a bit more technically about these DAC's I'd appreciate that sort of advice also (I'm a bit of a newb to the audio stuff I'm affraid - sigh).
Cheers,
Andy
