hi there, it seems that both benchmark and mytek are bringing out stereo a/d converters at the same time soon .Any info on price availability and comparisons greatly appreciated.I know the Mytek has the same specs as their 8 channel a/d converters and i,m sure both will be of excellent quality.julian

They are roughly the same price and both extremely nice. You will be happy with either...they are such a high calibur you will simply have to hear them for yourself to decide which is best for your situation.

Benchmark will also be making a 2 channel A/D with mic preamps on board. Around $1600.

FWIW I own the Benchmark D/A and will likely pick up the Mytek A/d.

Soon after the Benchmark ADC-1 with pre-amps is released, a "pre-less" version will follow. Sort of a "one-trick pony" as the DAC-1 is. I plan on getting the latter version.

I have a DAC-1 and my opinion is that this DA is truly a nice piece for the tail-end of your system. I'm using mine to drive powered monitor speakers.
