Moon 390 Network Streamer


Still evaluating numerous DAC/Streamers and had the opportunity to listen to Moon 390 Network Streamer. Any thoughts on Moon products in general and the 390?

Recommendations are greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

@ericba you have a good point there. I have a 280d -> moon 740p -> Pass Labs x250.8 

I might look into Luna going from the 280d to 740p, but maybe might need to do the same Im assuming from pre amp to amp as well? from pre amp to amp Im using Analysis Plus oval crystal xlr. From 280d to 740p its a non expensive Audioquest xlr.

I've spent some time with the 390 and really liked it.  Thought it played very well with Sonus Faber speakers.  The first thing I remember was that the sound staging punched way above its price point.

I have owned a 390 for a couple of years and have been very pleased with its sound. I tend to be a tweakaholic, and the Moon 390 has never failed to reveal the most subtle of differences in my explorations. 

Customer service is excellent: prompt, personal and knowledgeable. Who can beat a 10-year warranty?

Judging by the positive reception of their new 800 series, you can be secure that Simaudio will be here for another 40+ years...

@skads_187 if you go for Luna, the Mauve is the sweet spot. Organic , well-rounder sound, detailed but not analytical. Cardas Clear rev1 is amazing but not cheap.

@ericba I see thanks, would the Luna gray or Orange be ok? Seems like Mauve is a out of my budget sadly.
