Hello,
I live in USA and don’t have currently Hebrew keyboard, than I’m writing in English. I’m looking at this website very frequent and enjoy it very much. I have an entry level system with:
1. Vienna acoustics Bach speakers.
2. Plinius 8100 integrated amp.
3. Arcam CD 72 player.
4. Logitech squeezebox touch.
I would like to buy a DAC, and use the SBT as the main source. My budget is $700, and I would like to buy used DAC, either the Hegel HD11 or the PS audio Nuwave. I have few questions about it:
1. A friend of main tested the Nuwave, and find that there was better sound when he used the balance output of the Nuwave compare to the unbalance. Since I don’t have a balance input in my amp, I’m a bit concern about his experience. I’m curious to know if this is the same issue with the HD11. Does anyone tested the sound difference when using the balance or unbalance output?
2. Overall, does anyone compare between the two DAC’s? I know that eventually I need to try it in my system, but since I want to buy used unit, I’m not sure if I’ll be able to test it.
Thanks for your help.

Great respond Richter . I hope you didn’t spend too much time to write it. It looks hard…
Back to the point, do you have experience with the HD11?
Does anyone compare the sound differences while using the balance and unbalance output?
I read the review that was done by Aloni, and I didn’t see any info regarding this question.
