So my local dealer will sell his ak120 & ak120 Titan for a cheaper price due to the newer models coming out.
My options are as followed.
1. Buy the ak 120 for around 1200
2. Buy the ak 120 Titan for 1400
3. Wait for the new Ak100ii & purchase that for I believe it will sell around 1000
What does everyone think?
Is the new dacs that much better than the old?
Will one of the new dacs in the ak 100 be better than the ak 120 which has two?
Thanks a lot
If you are willing to take the risk, there are some used AK120s in the FS section of the forum. And I believe they are selling well below $1200.
I believe someone mentioned in this thread that the new DAC chips (CS4398) are in the same range as the Wolfson 8740. But AK did a much better job in the implementation this time around.
I am waiting for impressions of the AK120 II to surface before deciding whether to get the AK120 II or AK240.
