My perfectly fine Cambridge Audio DacMagic 200M —> Denafrips Pontus 15th has been a HUGH upgrade. And by huge I mean soundstage. It is smoother and more natural like I expected after listening other mid/high end R2R dacs and why I initiated the change but man is the stage big, holographic and airy on this and yet more pinpoint and solid. TBH the denafrips is 4x the cost but I wasn’t expecting this much of a jump. I’m pretty sure I’m at the 90-95% point now, which is where I seek since I have taste but a budget. Next is speakers I guess but not for a while I’m in heaven.
