Bryston BDP-1 Own one? What DAC are you using?


I have one on order and am very anxious for it to arrive.
At this point I plan to run through my Cambridge 840C's DAC coax input with Bryston's own BNC to SPDIF cable. Would love to hear anyone else's experience with it and what DAC you are using or recommend. I will likely end up also ordering Bryston's BDA-1 but don't want to spend another $2,195 if not needed. Any feedback you can offer on a DAC and also digital cabling is appreciated...

Using Wyred4Sound DAC-2. The BDP-1 sounds better than using J. River version 16 with the DAC-2's USB drive, which sounded pretty good to begin with. Even on MP3 files, the Bryston player is terrific, with great dynamic range and sound emanating from a really black background. Can sound harsh on heavily compressed music, but this has occurred very rarely.
