You don't have to trade your Mk I in before you receive the Mk II. You have thirty days to send one of them back to either complete or void the trade. So a chance to compare head to head. Before you see any independent reviews the trade in offer will be long gone. There are multiple people on the PS forum who have compared the Mk II to a bone standard Mk I and various modded versions and all claim the Mk II is clearly better than even the "full modded" Mk I. Several of those are people whose ears I trust and if I needed another DAC wouldn't hesitate to try it as I own a modded Mk I.
Has anyone heard the PS Direct stream mk2?
Has anyone heard the newly released PS Audio direct stream mk2 DAC? I have the original and am considering trading up. It sells for $8k, but only $4500 if I trade in my original direct stream.
The only “reviews” I have seen are from the PS Audio website, so perhaps a bit biased. wanting to hear from others.
thanks.
