I thought about this question last night. I don’t see myself upgrading for a long time.Question to the entire group???
We are about 6 months out since the R26 has been released. How is this group feeling about the R26? Meeting or exceeding expectations or are you disappointed / bored and looking for a change?
I will go first: For the money I think the R26 is the best DAC out there. I wish there was more comparisons to the Holo Spring 3 KTE as that was the other DAC I was considering but for now my expectations have been exceeded and not looking to acquire another DAC for some time.. You?
I’ve had 6 DACs within 2 years. This one is gonna stay. Mainly because the next step up for me would be in the $6000-$20000 range. (MAY, Lina, Playback Dream)
I might get something in the $1500-$2000 range that would handle DSD content only. (R26s only weak link)
