Looking for DAC

post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 

Basically, I'm searching for a DAC that isn't too costly. I'm currently using a budget NG27 with OPA627s right now, but my future set up is roughly like below.

Source : PC
DAC : ?
Headphones : HJE900, etc
Speaker set up : Miniwatt N2 and N3.

Effectively, I want a DAC that will allow me to use the above, hopefully easily.

As such, I was looking at the StyleAudio CARAT-RUBY2 as it has a output selector, but I'm seeking opinions and alternatives. As long as it doesn't cost too much I'm fine with it.

Something lower than 500SGD, which is roughly 400USD. But if it's worth it and exceeds the budget by a little, I'm also open to that.

I'm looking at getting a littledot dac_1. Might be worth looking into that for you too, though well below your budgeted price. The dac_II also contains an amp which may be even better for you.

Also recommend the Audio-gd FUN and you may want to read up on the Apogee Duet, V-DAC, used MHDT Paradisea, and HLLY DMK-III(?).
