my current setting:
L505u + 3001 ultra power cord
Linn m109 speaker + 1102 cable + zu jumper
budget for CAS ? still thinking... hope below $6k for additional hard and softwares ... and of course to start with freewares or trial version if available ...
With $6K budget, you may consider Arcam uDAC, ONIX DAC, MF M1 DAC, EE Minimax.......software I think most Apple users will recommend Amarra or Audirvana (free)
thanks, and incidentally found audiolab 8200cdq which has both cdp and dac functions (and pre-amp as well) ... any idea how its performance compared to the above DACs ?
