Quite a while back I tried a nos dac and was really impressed and somewhat leery of what I was hearing. The sound was incredibly smooth almost to the point of syrupey but still had great detail. I wasn't sure if it would be something I could listen to in the long run and was more than I wanted to spend. I put that urge to the back of my mind thinking it would take major bucks to go that route.
Reading the Redbook Upsample or not has me wondering (again) about these dacs. Questions I have are:
1. which manufacturers would you suggest and
2. what price point starts to get a decent one.
3. would additional equipment be required to go with the dac (reclocker, jitter, ect)
