Anyone have experience with R2R DACs (Denafrips, Holo Audio)?
i currently have a chord Qutest being fed by a bluesound node. the speakers are usually quad ESLs, the amplification is usually Croft, pass labs, or something vintage (quad, leak, Radford). i listen primarily to streaming digital (tidal or qobuz).
I’ve had the chord Qutest for about 7 years now and am looking to try something different, particularly a R2R dac. anyone have experiences with them, particularly higher end Denafrips or anything by Holo audio? are they worth ditching the Chord Qutest, or are they more a lateral move, akin to the difference associated with repositioning speakers by a few inches?
