Description

Nice sounding, dynamic system, overall. Pretty articulate, fast and detailed. Glass like clarity. Nice balance between the lows and the highs at all volume levels. Still some sibilance, which is recording dependent. Bass is always controlled and taut, never woolly.

try Virtual dynamics NiteII digital cable and Audience powerChord on your DAC2.....will be earth shattering and sibilance will be gone. trust me....B&W owner and previous DAC2 owner. Call cable company and borrow these if you are not 100% sure....I know, expensive, but well worth it.
good luck.
