Here’s the article I was referring to. Turns out my memory was slightly off, and Darko is “only” recommending a $10k DAC to pair with Genelec 8341’s (instead of a $50k one), but obviously this does not change my message at all since this is still abysmal advise from him.
To me, this reads like a giant ad for various DAC and preamp products. But you be the judge: https://darko.audio/2018/02/genelecs-the-ones-8341-think-inside-the-box/
Some key excerpts:
No matter how generously you try to interpret this, it’s terrible advise. Whether it’s due to ignorance, bias due to financial incentives, or deceit — I make no judgement.
I wasted an hour carefully reading that article twice. I did not see where in the article did Darko "recommend a $10k DAC to pair with Genelec 8341". In fact, he loves the all-in-one Genelec 8341's . He brings up the Chord DAVE as basically a separate review. His review is meandering and poorly organized, but nowhere does he recommend using the Chord DAVE to use with the Genelec 8341.
