Soekris dac2541

[Gerald Jansen]

Wow! "Boney M" ---> "BBBoney MMM".

This Danish audio elektronics (Soekris dac2541) produces BOOM and reveals more space, gives deeper listening into the recording (area) & exposes more details than the Chord MOJO dac (that I was used to).

Last week I saw the offer on the website of Soekris.dk:
"We're doing a special offer on the dac2541 for our European customers, for a limited time only, get one dac2541 for just EUR 1100.... Only valid for shipping directly from the factory to Europe."

As I had been following the developments for years, and now had the money, I took the plunge & ordered 2 machines.

No regrets this far. If I had to grade my audio investments over the years (starting at 15yo): this is the BEST investment I have ever done; next to QUAD ESL63pro :-)

This was the first DAC I bought 2 years ago. I've been very pleased with the sound and performance. I use XLR to the amp and AES from the source which is a Raspberry Pi with the Pi to AES card. I have Moodle installed on the Pi. JonMarsh had suggested this DAC to me to start with, and its' been fantastic.

Glad to hear you are happy, but not at all surprised. My older version (1541) is for the basic living room system (with Ardent D's and a Cambridge Edge W amplifier). The fundamental high resolution R2R ladder approach is (IMO) fundamentally superior to delta-sigma DAC's in most cases, both sonically and on my Audio Precision APx555 analyzer. (Wife doesn't like the big speaker projects I'm working on, and the high end system is going into a separate room).

Congrats on the Quads; used to sell their ESL's back in the 70's in a high end shop I was a partner in. (particularly for the Levinson HQD system).
