Merason DACs
I had heard of Merason DACs for a while. I decided to try the Merason Reuss. It's fed by my Innuos streamer (USB).
Wow, such an enjoyable DAC. Relaxing but without sacrificing all the audiophile attributes ;) Soundstage, Imaging etc..but more important a great tonality.
Was the Reuss released to replace the DAC1 mk1?
Now I am wondering what the differences would be between Reuss and DAC1 mk2? Has anyone compared?
Hardly anything out there with regards to the company and lead designer. I would love to know more about Merason and their background.
@zlone thanks for the link! That’s quite the comprehensive review/thoughts. From my read he preferred the Merason DAC mk2 in the end, correct?
Sorry, just spent reading the entire thread for 30 mins and now I’m confused with what Mitch preferred at the end lol (before Aries Cerat Helene came into the picture) |
I have the Reuss as well, it is an exceptional DAC. I have compared it to the DAC1 Mk1, in my system, and I do prefer the Reuss. I am also considering an upgrade to the MkII, interested if anyone has done this or has general comments on the MkII. Sounds like it was a close second in mitch2's https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/six-dac-comparison
