I had a PS Direct Stream w/the Transport combo in my home from PS. It was the latest w/ DSD,Pike's Peak upgrade all the new bells and whistles. It would not play some of my CD collection as I still spin disk. It was a little cheesy built. The display was a joke to see across the room. In the end,I kept my Ayon CD7S. BTW, I am semi-retired and I did get over 250 hours on the unit and it seemed to settle in at that time. Still liked my Ayon Better.
