| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Jwm - the Memory Player & Davinci2 setup is staggeringly good. I don’t doubt the performance of the Bricasti but I find it bordering on inconceivable that even with Ethernet feeding it, it would equal my current setup. USB, when properly imple... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Charles. Another Davinci2 owner was a previous Bricasti SE DAC owner and said that although close, the Davinci2 was unquestionably superior. I will I’ll ask him to bring it over the next time he comes so we can hear it in my system. I believe that... | |

| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD I agree with CTSooner. And I said the same thing the last time this was brought up. I don’t believe that a certain type of chip is required to make good sound. It’s all in the implementation of that chip. That said, if an R2R is properly implement... | |

| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Mike - thanks for the hookup. I’m going to do a tad more research to decide if I’m going to keep my Adona and load up on footers (the Trinia look intriguing and Albert is currently doing a head to head with the StillPoint 5’s that shoul yield inte... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Mike L. - email sent. Dave - text to be sent tomorrow. Let’s hook up and compare those usb cables. And maybe the Baetis to the MP64. 👍🏻 | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Mike - I agree the biggest issue is the cost of the HRS/Critical Mass racks. I have no doubt they offer excellent results but $35-50k for a rack!!!! Really?!? I looked into active for a while as well. Do you use that? And on what? Hey Mr. Audio Do... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Looking for opinions.....I’m considering upgrading my rack. I currently have an Adona that is very good. But the top tier is in a different class.

| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Hey Wisnon- I remembered someone talked about the Memory Player. I forgot it was you. If Mark Porzilli is the Mark that Sam keeps referring to than yes, and the guy is a freakin genius!! | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Ricred1- no argument there. I don’t want to go into pricing. If you are interested, pricing is “flexible” from posted retail. PM me for an explanation. Sam is a great guy and I don’t want to openly state more then that. Steve, my ODSX is loving li... | |

| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Jh901 - I don’t focus on DAC chip and design. Just sound. I’ve heard good and bad ladders, and good and bad everything else. Implementation is more important then what chip design is implemented. I‘ve never been a fan of the DS, in all of its iter... | |
