This DAC is on sale here now for 670 Euro. Any serious competitors in that price range?
Is the output completely discrete on the dac1? I know that it utilizes technology from Marantz's other lines (HDAM-SA2).

Hi guys has their been any direct comparisons with the marantz na-11s1 dac sections?
More interesting though (especially to head-fi-ers) is that the headphone amp section of the HD-DAC1 is significantly better than the headphone output on the SA-11S3 (which is no slouch either!). Again I would assume the headphone output of the NA-11S1 is similar to that of the SA-11S3.
So, depending on how you intend to use it either could be better suited...
I think we should keep in mind that the HD-DAC1 is marketed by Marantz as headphone amp first than DAC - from their website "Marantz Headphone Amplifies with DAC mode".
Hey guys,
Has anybody used these with T1?
Can these overperformance something like idac2+bottle head crack?
My current setup is modi+vali. I want something warmer than my current setup.
