Ok guys, I need help.
I need DAC for Squeezebox - and I'm thinking Stello... Now, I can't decide between DA220MkII and DA100. DA220 is better future proof being balanced with XLR, but for Squeezbox it's irrelevant - I may need it in the future if I trade SB for something more advanced. DA100, being almost 2.5 times less expensive, will sound identically with SB as per iron_dreamer, so it should be fine - but then it'll have to go if I get balanced source.
What's "wiser" in my situation - DA220 or DA100?
