Hello,
I own a Marantz SA8001 CD/SACD player and I am fairly happy with its sonics, but I am always looking to improve existing gear.
I saw a good price on a Benchmark DAC, and I was wondering if it would improve the sonics of the SA8001, or is the top-of-the-line Cirrus Logic DAC built into the SA8001 just as good or nearly as good, sonically, as the Benchmark DAC?
[This would be using the SA8001 as a transport, and the Benchmark DAC acting as an outboard DAC using the coax output on the back of the SA8001].
Any opinions would be appreciated.
Thanks!
