Hey hey!

I’m window shopping for a DAC for a simple computer/desktop system. Mac Mini —> DAC —> Adam A5x.

Right now I’m using a Focusrite Scarlett Solo that I’m looking to upgrade for (A) improved sound quality - something smooth - speakers plenty detailed and unforgiving and (B) remote volume!

Any thoughts / suggestions under $800 new or used.

Teac UD 503 is my top choice at the moment.

    Those sound neat, but wouldn’t have been on my radar. My first serious speakers were KEFs - my parents have them now.

    I have Oskar Hell Aulos for my main system. It’s the tweeters in these that led to the Adams.

    Too much competition for my money these days or I would have probably already bought the Teac DAC. It’s interesting not many DACs have remote volume. It’s not a typical setup I get it.
