Mike.......I would have had to ask the dealer exactly what DAC is that. If he is making a statement that the C52 has the same DAC as the D150, I think he should have no problem being more specific. McIntosh has used a number of different DAC's in their products in the past five years or so. If the dealer can't be specific, then he should not be making comments like that to a potential customer. Comments like that should be backed up with specifics, like it's a Wolfson WM8740, or it's a Burr-Brown PCM1792A, or it's an ESS ES9018 Sabre Reference DAC. I'm not saying the dealer is incorrect, but there are many assumptions being tossed about that aren't necessarily factual. If I am about to purchase a $7000.00 preamplifier, my questions should be answered thoroughly. Just sayin'.........
