I own a bryston bcd1,but also a weiss dac2 (and a tc electronic bmc2).Connected directly without preamp to an airtight ATM2 tube amp (duntech prince's speakers).
The sound realism when using the weiss is strongly depending upon the cd transport(tascam cdr2000 gives a better association than the bcd1 used as transport ,dont know why) and upon the digital cables used,even upon the use of an external word clock(mutec).
When optimized,i cannot come back to the bcd1,cannot explain but this is a reality.My bcd1 now remains unused.
My conclusion is the jitter issues are not yet totally resolved and a part of the effects on the digital bit flow remains mysterious but real!
