Yet another guy seeking DAC advice

[Sandra]

Hi Rascal, I am in the market for a dac too, but I did listen to the Denon 100th anniversary cd player and I loved it. It's a beautiful machine, plays high resolution music (w/spdif). The sound was warm, detailed, very nice. I don't want to buy anything until next spring because I want to demo a few dacs first, otherwise I would have bought it. They didn't make many, I heard only 100, it's $2500.
