Bryston BDA-3

I think your definition of "more body" may instead be whether or not the sound is recessed and narrow with some masking of sound, versus wide and deep and all sounds properly weighted. I believe this may be better characterized by the impulse response measurement than the harmonic distortion measurement.

In which case the Bryston BDA-3 plus Dirac Live RCS might be your best choice if you prefer the most detailed, cleanest, and accurate sound with the above definition of "more body". But you will want both.

Unfortunately I think it unlikely I will have a Luxman or Ayre for direct comparison anytime soon.

Nekoaudio, I again applaud your descriptions.  A dealer near me (I am very far from California) will have a BDA-3 for audition in a week or two, and I will seize the opportunity.   I am tempted to borrow/purchase and bring to that audition an Oppo Sonica, when that DAC becomes available, and if that opportunity arises I will report on the experience.    

Got my BDA-3 DAC  two weeks ago, driving it with my 2 1/2 year-old Oppo 105D that was fully modified by EVS [Ric Schultz]. I use a Nordost Blue Flare HDMI cable to connect the two. I play RBCD and SACD two-channel exclusively-no downloads.
Setup was simple and the DAC locks on flawlessly. Although I still need plenty of burn-in over the factory's  100 hours, the music it produces is superb-just like Greenhill's review in Stereophile.This is enhanced by the over $1000. in EVS modifications done to the transport portion of my Oppo.
The biggest improvement was to  RBCD. The DAC has resurrected my CD collection. HDCD comes through as PCM. The already great sounding SACD's are further improved in soundstage, imaging and most importantly in tonal quality.
This DAC was well worth the wait.

@papaned,
Congratulation on the new acquisition and Thanks for sharing your experience. Looks like the BDA-3 is awesome. How are you playing the SACD (DSD) streams over the DDA-3? Is it via HDMI?
