I listen mainly to vinyl but just picked a CD transport so I am needing a DAC. I also plan on streaming thru the DAC so take that into account. I have set a budget of $1500 for the DAC and not opposed used.
my equipment is Mcintosh C1100 pre, MC 601's, VPI TNT TT,and JBL L300 speakers. The transport I just got was a Theta Data Basic CD.What current gear do you have.
Plus one on the recommendation for the D100. Especially since you already have some other Mac gear to keep it company. I liked my 1st D100 so much that I bought 2nd one for another Mc system.You can get a used McIntosh D100 DAC/Pre-Amp/Headphone amp for that price. I really enjoy mine.

I have thought about the D100 but was concerned that it might be older technology. When did it 1st come out and has it had any updates? Is it still built?
This is a WAY better option than that TEAC. Not even close.A preowned McIntosh D150 showed up on Agon today for a bit over your stated budget, but it has a "make an offer" option. No affiliation.
