        Three DAC1's would be 6 channels - are you going for a home theater setup with Benchmark gear?

          Forgot to mention they added about $300 to it with the USB port. Makes the decision even harder of course. For some of us.

            Benchmark or Apogee Mini-dac
            by goskers
            Hey all,

            After doing a lot of research on using my PC as a source I have come to the conclusion that it is a very good idea. If you can use your usb outs then you can eliminate the jitter until your dac decodes the signal. If you get the right dac, one with a usb input, then you may...

            Opinion: Denon DP-S1, DA-S1, Benchmark DAC1
            by jteoh1
            Hi,

            I’m looking to upgrade my 2-channel system sources. I’m considering Denon DP-S1 CD Transport ($8000 list), DA-S1 DAC ($7000 list) and Benchmark DAC1 ($975). Both DP-S1 and DA-S1 were first released in 1993.

            How does the 12-year old 20-bit DA-S1 compare with the...

            b&Ws and Benchmark DAC1
            by Sunshine
            HI,
            Is any of you using a benchmark DAC1 with your B&Ws? Some say that the DAC1 is cold & analytical and should not be used with too analytical speakers.

            Those of you who do use a DAC1 how do you think it compares with a good quality CD (provided the transport to the DAC1...

            by vifferboy
            Hello all

            Over the last year I have been slowly been drawn into the digital server approach to storing music and recently bought a used Benchmark DAC1 USD. The said unit is connected to my media PC, my TV and my RCD1072 is now serving as a CD transport.. So far I’m very impressed...
