dCS - The New Ring DAC APEX

[@richardbrown2769]

I have a Vivaldi stack. All is great. Now I am looking for odd extra things apart from accuracy performance etc - but engagement. I wonder if this does that?

[@chetstern5933]

Can the Bartok be upgraded?

[@dcsaudio]

Hello, at present we have no plans to offer APEX with the Bartók Headphone DAC or Streaming DAC. More information on this is available here: dcsaudio.com/edit/apex-your-questions-answered

[@briansellden6115]

This is great :) My Vivaldi has been enhancing my life for several years now. Looking forward to the upgrade.

@@dcsaudio any upgrade info yet?

[@daveuk1324]

This is excellent news - can't wait to get APEX upgrade for my Rossini player. What is your expected lead time on upgrades? Thanks.

[@dcsaudio]

Hi Dave, we recommend contacting your dCS dealer for more information on upgrades and lead times. You can also find more info on APEX upgrades here dcsaudio.com/edit/apex-your-questions-answered. Hope that helps!

It's a shame that a bad mastered compact disc ("Loudness War") will still sound bad even with the best DAC in the world...

[@agx502]

Yes it’s a shame but it probably means that it is some kind of pop or rock music where the production team just want it to sound loud on crappy equipment (cheap ear buds, in the car, via heavily compressed file media etc etc). So it sucks for those of us who’s taste in music is in the pop/rock domain. (The production values in jazz/classical/operatic releases are normally (not always) better. )

[@goodsound4756]

Great news, but what was specifically improved? Did you solve the problems of digital nasties like Jitter and the so called filter induced Pre-Ringing? Was this already solved, so what‘s new? This is just a high level marketing video, sorry.

Hello, you can find out more about the improvements we've made at dcsaudio.com/edit/apex-a-closer-look

​@@dcsaudio I hope you apologise publicly, emphatically and veery soon, about your bullying and unacceptable behaviour towards GoldenSound. Past and potential customers are walking out on you, including myself.

Best deal in audio

[@Sirflatch]

Just Beautiful 😍 ❤

[@lucalone]

are you considering to develop a DAC with a lower price tag in the future? let's say for about 1000 $.

[@sparkeyjones6261]

They make them for far less than that, and could easily charge $1000. They're taking the piss.
