You should look at the Wyred4Sound 10th anniversary DAC, it beat both of those DACs in testing, one of the reviewers put it up against his VPI turntable with a $5,000 Japanese cartridge and he said the 10th anniversary DAC was every bit as analog sounding, on that review I bought it because it comes with a 30-day trial. and I totally agree it is one of the most analog sounding DACs I've ever had in my system. It's not cheap though It's $4,500 US.
Bricasti M1SE DAC vrs Meitner MA3
I recently posted a DAC choice between a Meitner MA3 and a Bricasti m3. I now have a choice between (just became available) The same Meitner M3 and a Bricasti M1SE version model. The Bricasti is a little more expensive after certain discounts and adjustments are applied, about another 1K. I hate to ask, (but I will) if anybody has input or preferences for one or the other, hopefully from hearing or owning one. As I grow older this will most likely be my last DAC Thanks so much.
