CES is a For the Trade Only show held in Las Vegas every January. ARC will be in the Venetian Hotel on the 29th floor.

For this kind of integrated dac+pre solutions, one issue that comes to mind is competition of companies stronger on sources (e.g. dCS; MSB) vs companies stronger on amplification (e.g. Audio Research).

I can tell you my Diamond DAC IV performs preamp duties admirably in comparison to Plinius M8 & Moon P7.

Proper matching allows far more access to the music. If you are an ARC fan, the REF DAC is likely to be a better choice than the mix and match, hit and miss of the false God that is synergy. YMMV |
