- Let’s just let the review on AVinside do the talking…..
”The Métronome range, while perhaps unknown to mainstream HiFi aficionados, is squarely positioned as a global high-end powerhouse in digital front ends. The Métronome Le DAC is the firm’s entry level product, yet it promises performance that will satisfy even the most critical enthusiast and enthral music lovers.”
”The Métronome’s addictive personality never failed to turn quick listening sessions into marathons. An innocuous looking box, this is one of the most capable DACs we have ever experienced, with a massive range of inputs and a future-proof feature set, the Le DAC is an easy device to recommend.”
”Ultimately it became clear – the Le DAC is a DAC for people that don’t need to know (or care) what a DAC does, but want to listen to the most enjoyable system possible. This may just be the last DAC most of us need…”
The LeDac became the LeDac2 after the fire at the AKM factory in Japan caused a worldwide shortage of the Dac chip it then used. The leDac2 was almost indistinguishable from the original LeDac. Recently, Metronome updated the LeDac and intoduced the LeDac3. Much more expensive (R170k) with some additions like a streaming option and so on.
My LeDac is absolutely perfect, effectivly brand new. It is currently in a very high end system where it’s aquitting itself astoundingly well but, sadly must now make way for a new MSB. Give me a call to discuss. Images are off the net. My unit is black.
