Are we really still considering DACs with five-figure price tags, in an era when a £99 USB DAC sounds so good? Apparently so: France's Metronome Technologie addresses this cost-no-object sector with multiple converters, lavish multi-chassis construction and other expensive solutions. For the C8+, which comes in below the company's Nausicaa DAC [HFN Dec '13], £ 15,900 pays for two options over its less-expensive C5 and C6 siblings. Most obvious is the addition of the Elektra outboard power supply, the two chassis connecting through a 4-pin umbilical - isolating power supplies from audio circuitry being inarguably wholly beneficial.
