Here comes the PS Audio's streamer -- anyone excited?


Many here are much more well versed in good streamers than me. Interested in reactions to this new entry.

I'm no longer interested in their products after buying a Stellar DAC that has had a bad optical port since day 1. I even sent it in for repair and was advised it's working properly. 

I saw the video and might be interested. The way they isolate the d side from the a side without using optical cable is intriguing and I have a DAC with an I2S input, so the lack of USB won’t be a problem.  I’d like to hear a review or three before I decide to drop $2000 though.

 

If your DAC doesn't use their I2S protocol it won't do you any good and if it does both the Silent Angel Munich and iFi Neo Stream have an I2S output using the same protocol for less. Plus with the Neo Stream you have an alternative DAC to try out. 

PS audio does nice videos but not really make the best equipment. 

 

Keep searching. 

Not really ,I owned their top dac ,and inside a rip-off for the money the case is cheap like a $300 Blu-ray player ,I almost cut my hand open ,from the sharp edges 

this too means it rings like a 🔔 no damping inside whatsoever ,on a $5k + piece of equipment and inside was just hollow space .

that’s why I am not to thrilled , if someone takes the cover off and machined  casework like Bricasti ,and well designed with multiple linear power supplies and regulation then I will maybe look deeper into it.
