This is my first post but I’ve been reading reviews on this forum for a long time.
I currently own a SMSL Sanskrit 10 and Ive been thinking about changing DACs. I see the measurements and the rankings but I’m curious where the line of diminishing returns begins. Outside of the measurements, can a difference be heard? Should I buy a M500?
current setup:
Roon & Tidal
Chromecast Audio (Optical only as a room endpoint)
SMSL Sanskrit 10
Marantz PM8006 (preamp only)
PrimaLuna Prologue Four
Focal Aria 926s
Will a better DAC be an upgrade or am I asking a nonsensical question?
I appreciate the feedback.
