My Bricasti M1 expereince......

I got my Bricasti yesterday as promised by Brian. I let is sit for 24 hours to get to room temperature in order to avoid any condensation issues (it is cold up here!).

I installed it today and made a quick comparison with me PWD MkII with the Upgrade Company Statement mods. The M1 blew the PWD MkII out of the water so easy...

Yes it is double the price but it is worth it. I thought the PWD sounded very good but in comparison it sounded lean with a lot less body and with a defused soundstage. The M1 sounds real and with a very focus soundstage. You can pin point every instrument and voice in its own space. It just sounds a lot more analog and natural.



It is so good that I am going to sell my Wadia 27 and PWD MkII to buy a second unit for my other system.



In addition to the beautiful design and great performance dealing with Brian Zolner was a total pleasure. He was so quick in responding all my questions and a total gentleman.

I've owned the Bricasti for about 6 weeks. It's world class. My previous DAC for 15 years was the Sonic Frontiers SFD-2 mkii, which I love. I've had the Weiss 202 in my system. Bricasti won hands down. I've also listened to the MSB Sig Platinum with Femto clock and Analog DAC. While I might give the nod to the MSB Sig Platinum, at $23K the difference was not worth the extra $14K.

The Bricasti will be in my system for a long time.
