| Redbook Keeps Surprising Steakster,I fully agree about the Bricasti. I have auditioned it in my home system but it could not yet do DSD at the time. Don’t let anyone tell you different just because....http://www.bricasti.com/m1_specs.htmlYup, you guessed it. The Bricasti ... | |

| Very interested Baetis Audio conversation with John Mingo on the fence Having ripped all my cd's to flac, I recently traded in my old K-01 for the Esoteric N-05 dac/network player as I would like to control all my music in redbook/hires pcm/dsd formats via tablet/phone and so no longer need a spinner.
