開箱啦! Marantz NA-11S1

andylam67

I know it's a bit late for this product as it was released for a year already. just upgraded from SBT+benchmark dac1 USB (well, is it a upgrade?) just heard one song (Diana Krall walk on by flac 24/96) via synology 213+ via normal cat 6 LAN cable. it's more rich and musical, the voice is more sweet. but i will say it's not as 'clear' as benchmark, maybe it's because benchmark is a studio dac. can't say which one is better, depending on your taste. but clearly it's not a wrong move. Since this is my first time to post open box here, I forgot to take picture before I place it in my hifi柜. Only one dark photo here. Sorry....

Simply modify is fine

After listening for 1.5 hours. NA11S1's sound is not as "sharp" as benchmark, but it's definitely more detailed. When I listen to Gwen Stefani Early Winter with benchmark, Gwen's voice is sometimes very 刺耳, but it does not happen with na11s1. Don't know if it means good or not, but definitely more pleasant to listen to.

CHING請問在那有試聽, 因為小弟都想升級dac

Not many places can try, even KEF TST shop doesn't have it.  Yxu Shxng 16/F can test but the set up is so so, you may even think it's bad..... Actually I only listened to it for 15 mins and decided to buy it.... just hope it won't be bad and turn out to be good.

多謝CHING的意見, 其實小弟想找部人聲較厚小甜的DAC, 我找日上去聽聽先謝謝
