Has anyone heard the new PS Audio Perfect Wave?


What are your thoughts on the new Perfectwave DAC and transport? I heard it and was pretty blown away. The one disappointment is you cannot play SACD's. The sound quality has me thinking of what the future of audio will sound like.

i own the pwt and pwt. i prefer coax over ps audio's silver hdmi cable. my stereo system is on the soft side and my room is over damped. yet the ps audio combo sounds analytical. i have selected power cords and interconnects , in order to soften the sound. i can only think of several possibilities for my divergence from the previous posters:

1) insufficient break-in time

2)significant difference s in preference

3)significant differences in perception

my audionote cd2 from 1990 sounds better than the ps audio com,bo and my ess sabre dac/audionote cd2 combo is also preferred.

i find that the ps audio combo while very extended from top to bottom is fatiguing unless you use the best cds.
hi srwooten: how many houurs did you put on the pwd (???&pwt) before critical listening ? perhaps i have misjudged these components. maybe i need more break-in time. i own ps audio's silver hdmi cable, but i prefere coax.

thanks
