Weiss Medea-MAC Pro 16/44 - 24/192 Ultimate Conn

I have not compared directly, but I have owned EMM LABS CDSA, I own the Medea, and have heard DCS Puccini in my system.

IMHO the Medea is in a class by itself!

Now Weiss Medea and Weiss DAC1-MK2 have both Firewire interface installed in the box . Has anybody compared Weiss topline dacs with DCS or Wadia staff ?

HD performance of Weiss products are very well known and said to be one of the best products in the hi-end category. What about the 16/44 Redbook CD performance ? Do you have any idea ?

Hi Zee911!

Are you talking about the Weiss Medea or the Weiss Vesta?

Michael

how much u bought it for? are u happy with the sound?

I finally settled at the Weiss Vesta firewire and jitter suppresion interface. I am now using a firewire cable from my Mac Pro to the Weiss Vesta and a AES/EBU from the Vesta to the Medea. That is for sampling rates up to 96khz. For 176.4khz and 192khz you need two cables from the Vesta to the Medea.
The sound of high definition audio, 176.4 that I listened, is really something else. :)

Thanks Guys!

Alexsee I have seen this card, but its quite expensive, I might as well buy the Weiss Vesta with a Weiss AES/EBU cable just for the peace of mind!

i suppose Firewire is the best connection for this kind of applications!

Kind Regards,

Michael

you could use a "Lynx AES16 sound card" & a "D-sub to XLR cable" to connect your Mac Pro to the Medea.
