Just surfing thru previous posts. Saw a Meridian 563 DAC and did not know what this is. Checked via Google and it seems this equipment converts digtal input to analog. Is this to allow stereo preamps to read the signal from mp3 players, etc and allow them to be played on a home stereo ?? Many thanks

Digital to Analog Converter. When you have a CD transport its' output is a single stream of 1's & zeroes. The DAC converts it to 2 channel stereo - normally at 16 bit 44.1 khz.

I am taking about redbook CD.

Thanks everyone !!! I did not realize that component stereo had gone to these lengths - granted I have been out of it for a while. My love of good sound has not diminished tho' - I still have a Harmon Kardon Citation 16 doing the power amp duties for me !!! Best of the season to you and yours.

For at least 20 years, probably more............
