Bricasti Model 1 Series II DAC

barrel chief,

Rumor on the street is 500 hours before you do any critical listen. There is a review on 10audio. 

I sure don't have 500 hrs on it, but that would be super if there's a continued improvement.  I do agree that the low end would seem well defined, deeper and present.  Listening to Adrian Sherwood productions are better than ever with superior bass and rhythmic drive.

Again, thank you all for chiming in.  
 

If you notice any more notable improvements/changes as you get more hours on the new circuits, please report back.  
 

If/when I pull the trigger on the upgrade, I will do the same!

I received the Bricast M1se v2 from Bricasti on Friday after v2 upgrade

 I also had the Mcx board and the ethernet board installed, so a little harder to tell what the V2 upgrade brings to the table. Used transport to take ethernet out of equation 

After about 48 hours it is a much better Dac than before  upgrades. Texture of notes and Soundstage are better than the already awesome V1.

The MDX upgrade was a large step forward. My non SE M1 now is the Series 2. The series 2 upgrade is tighter, leading edge improved , image is more focused as well bigger. Bricasti delivers again and I could not be happier that I took the plunge!

 There are no downsides to the series 2 over the M1 original. Such a natural  and analog sound. Congrats to the Bricasti team. Great customer service and upgrade path re-enforces my commitment to Bricasti.
