So I ordered the Teac UD-501, but didn't realize it only output 1 watt through the amp. I'm getting it this week. So reading through this thread I can get a feel that this is a great DAC but a bit weak on the AMP side. Would you guys consider the LYR2 a good compliment to the Teac...- cheesegrados

Keep LCD 3 or LCD 2?
I just got my LCD-2 fazor and do notice a difference with the higher model (XC is an improvement), but for me i don't want to pay 1000 more for the LCD-3. Thats just me though. Money is scarce for me. But off course if I could afford it, why not?- cheesegrados
