Everything Audio Network - ADC16 Review
"I played a Gibson Custom Shop ’59 Les Paul, which has a fantastic warm humbucker tone. I have recorded this rig with other converters, but the Benchmark ADC16-recorded tunes played back through the DAC1USB (or even my Apogee DAC) blew them all away. I have never heard my guitar rig sound this good..." - Jackson Macinnis
ADC16 Review
"I almost forgot that I had the ADC16 patched into my system over the review period - which is possibly the most flattering thing you can say about a unit designed to be transparent in use." - Stephen Bennett
Benchmark Media Systems DAC1 HDR DAC-Preamplifier-Headphone Amplifier
"...it's small and light, making it easy to place in your room, and its bold, dynamic, detailed sound will surprise those who think they need big separates to get a big sound."
A quick update on the Benchmark DAC1 USB Digital to Analog Converter
"Another inexpensive giant killer; the new Benchmark DAC1 USB sounds even better and is more flexible than the original."
Mix Magazine reviews MPA1
"The Benchmark is a world-class microphone preamp that is surprisingly versatile. It was phenomenal on vocals and acoustics, as well as everything else I tested it on."
Home Theater Hifi Reviews ADC1 USB
"I loved what the ADC1 did for my vinyl recordings. This little gem provides grain free, fatigue free recordings that I crave."
Benchmark Preamp / DAC
"All in all, the Benchmark DAC1 HDR is damn close to a perfect piece of equipment."
