Pursuit Perfect System (Terry Ellis) detailed ytube review(s) of the Diablo 300 seemed to suggest there was a special synergy with the optional DAC module and it would be wise to consider it.
Well during auditioning I very much agree.
The streaming connection was changed to SPDIF out via an interconnect into the Gryphon DAC module and wow it was like a new world of sound with DAC, preamp and power amp really singing together.
My listening notes summary say: capable of great atmosphere, a very integrated sound - definitely musical and transparent in the same breath.
So, as expensive as the optional quality DAC is, it’s incredibly well matched to the amplifier.
