Hi, new to Stereophile. I have a limited budget and am slowly building a system. Considering a first upgrade to be using my Marantz DV6500 as a transport and running it to a higher quality DAC. I'm sold on SACD so here are my two questions: 1)is a special DAC required to convert DSD? 2) which DACs do you recommend for orchestral / female vocals
System: Vandersteen 2CE, Marantz DV6500, Marantz SR5500, Transparent Music Wave BiWire, Transparent The Link 100 Interconnect
