Have you had a chance to listen to the Cary Audio DMS800PV Dual Mono DAC/Streamer. Plays Tidal and Qobuz as well as other. Built in Crystek Oscillator Clock and other goodies. Very hard to beat in the price point you are looking at and it is built like a tank.
New DAC with streamer
Hi I'm looking for a DAC to replace a modified PS Audio DirectStream MK1.
I currently use MConnect on a Samsung S20 phone to stream Qobuz. The preamp is a Spectral DMC-30SV and the amps are Spectral DMA-400 monoblocs. Speakers are EgglestonWorks Rosa.
My choice for a new DAC is the Bricasti M21. It has a built-in streamer for ethernet, and gives you the choice of playing music using a ladder dac, delta sigma dac or 1-bit DSD.
Let me know your thoughts, if you have any experience with Bricasti and if it is worth the price at about $16K.
