| BRICASTI M1DAC DIRECT TO VAC PHI 300.1A OR...? I have owned all 3 and the Bricasti is hands down far superior in every way. The Vega has got the Directstream beat as well but doesn't hold a candle to the Bricasti ... Using a Simaudio I7 integrated and I toggle between using my Bricasti as prea... | |
| Bricasti M1 DAC vs PS Audio Direct Stream DAC I just bought my Directstream to replace a Auralic Vega ... So far, I am not impressed. As front end gear goes, the DS has the Vega beat.

| Citypulse Audio DA2.03e II vs. Benchmark USB DAC1 Curious you mention the Trends UD-10 transport... I was going to get the Trends & the model below the 2.03e which did not have USB capabilities but i was always under the impression that less is more, so cut out a component if you can... i was... | |
| Citypulse Audio DA2.03e II vs. Benchmark USB DAC1 I must say, that when i originally got it, i bypassed my pre & had it running directly into my amp & used it like its own separate little pre-dac with its own little remote... the issue i had with that was static coming out of the speakers... |
