Cheers all,

I'm building a cheap system using an old marantz pm50 amp and a pair of b+w 602s2's to play lossless files (including some 24/96 vinyl rips) from my mac laptop. For now I've been relying on d>a conversion inside the mac but I would like to insert a dac into the chain using the optical out on the mac.
My question is whether with the equipment I have it is worth going for the caiman, or should the basic 7520 (or even 7510) suffice. Would I hear a difference on such a low level system?


Thanks for your input
