| PS Audio PerfectWave SACD Transport? The PS Audio PerfectWave SACD uses an I2S (HDMI) output while the Bricasti DAC uses an RJ-45 which input. They are fundamentally incompatible. | |
| What the Best Dac have you heard or owned. How could you tell it was that good. There are so many very good to great DACs these days! I went to AXPONA earlier this month just to listen to as many DACs as I could (and there were quite a few). I ended up purchasing a Bricasti M21. Why, you may ask. I have perhaps an unusual exp... | |
| Bricasti M3 vrs Meitner MA3 Are you at a place yet, Rob, where you feel comfortable offering your thoughts regarding a comparison between your Bricasti and Meitner DACs. | |
| Opinions on PS Audio Direct Stream DAC (Mk 1) My primary audio dealer has been encouraging me to purchase an all PS Audio setup: DS MkII: Air Lens; and SACD transport. What gives me serious pause is the really mediocre measurement results published in its Stereophile review. How canthey be re... | |
| Andrew Singer Of "Sound by Singer" passed away yesterday I visited his store from time to time when I live in New York in the late 1970s. It was always a delight -- sort of like when my wife and I perused the street floor of Tiffany's. Here is Andrew's brief obituary: Andrew Neil Singer - September 16,... | |
| Metner MA3 vs Playback Designs MPD-6 Your description was very helpful, for which I thank you. Why do you think that this Meitner DAC is so unknown, particularly given its performance/price ratio? | |
| Quite a few Bricasti M21 DACs for sale cheap If I am not mistaken, the M21 also has a third DAC - which is a one-bit converter for DSD streams. This additional DAC is ideal for utilizing the DSD output of SACDs as well as for converting high-resolution audio files downloaded from sources suc... | |
| Quite a few Bricasti M21 DACs for sale cheap I listened to both the M21 and the Grimm MU2 at AXPONA 2024 last week. Both are outstanding in many regards, but the Grimm may be a bit better in depth and in resolution. Playing the 4th movement of Beethoven's 9th Symphony through the MU2 was a r... | |
| What DAC/HA/Streamer should I audition at Axpona in April? Dealer comments welcome, too. I am at AXPONA now. Respecting your upper price limit, I suggest two: the Limin T3 and the aSPL Director, at $4,950 abd $4,200, respectively,. | |
| Axpona 2024 Notice-Audiophile Society Board Members- Will there be any sort of multi-channel demo? | |
| Surround Theater Speakers Suggestions Your surround speakers are supportive, not primary like the left, center, and right speakers. I have a very high-end theater installation, but, after a lot of investigation, I ended up purchasing Arendal 1723 THX speakers as my surround speakers. ... | |
| Shopping for a DAC at AXPONA A couple of people I really respect have opined that the Grimm Audio MU2 is the one streamer/DAC to rule them all. Are they right? (Its price is at the midpoint of the other candidates.) | |
| Not to be missed at Axpona Make sure to see Grimm Audio. Their DAC, I understand, employs a unique and proprietary approach to digital conversion. The result, I have been told but not yet heard for myself, is fabulous. I am still trying to convince my wife to join me. | |

| Shopping for a DAC at AXPONA Thank you both for you helpful replies. I had not really considered the Grimm streamer/DAC previously, so I read the company’s website and all discoverable reviews. Consequently, I wrote Grimm Audio to see if I could meet them at AXPONA privately ... |
