Hi
I have the chance to get my hands on either a Primare i21 (NO DAC) or Primare i22 DAC, second hand. There is a significant price variation between these two, and I don't know if it just because the i22 has a DAC built in. To my understanding the i22 is just the next version of the i21, not a hugh step between them..
I am just wondering what you guys think of these two amplifiers? I've heard from a friends friend that the all analog i21 is much warmer in the sound compared to the digital i22 DAC. Does anyone have any experience with these two amplifiers, and which one would you go for if you had the chance of buying one of them today? Are there benefits of having the DAC built in or separate from the amp?
