Hi-Fi Choice has published its February issue and it’s a doozy. Included is an Ultimate Group Test for affordable DACs, as well as a smattering of other reviews. Here’s the rundown:
- Bryston BDA-1 DAC (GBP 1,950)
- Apogee Mini-DAC DAC
- Beresford TC-7510 DAC
- Cambridge Audio DacMagic DAC
- Cyrus Audio DAC X DAC
- Heed Audio Dactilius DAC
- Lavry Engineering DA10 DAC
- Cyrus CD Xt SE CD transport and DAC XP DAC/preamp
- Yamaha CD-S700 CD player and A-S700 integrated amp
- Tannoy Revolution DC4T floorstanding speakers (GBP 499)
- DALI Lektor 8 floorstanding speakers (GBP 999)
- YBA YA201 integrated amp
I’m not sure what the folks at TechRadar are smoking, but the Hi-Fi Choice reviews they publish are often late and miscategorized. I guess we still have to subscribe to the old fashioned paper version to get it complete and accurate. Behold, the Internet Revolution!
