Review on Bricasti Design M3 DAC

My review was just posted on Stereo Times website on the Bricasti Design M3 DAC. If you are searching for a DAC/streamer/analog volume control DAC, no preamp needed with the M3, in the price range of $5,000, you might want to get the details of why you might want to audition this piece. It's superlative in both build quality, innovative design, and most importantly in it's beautiful musical performance.

What value fuse does this unit take?
No information is given in the manual.

Manual p.6:
"There are no fuses in the M3 as safety is insured by the use of a rear panel mounted circuit breaker."

Antipodes EX CX

Took the EX out (USB hookup)

Hooked Ethernet out of the CX into the M3.

😱😎😂

Blow me down, better SQ.

Ordered the EtherRegen and Dark Matter power Queen to see what that does.

I am currently running a Chord Qutest being fed via USB from my Innuos Zenith mkIII. I was thinking of upgrading the Qutest and the M3 is on my short list, along with the Hugo TT2 and Denafrips Pontus or Venus. Anyone compare the M3 with a Hugo TT2? I don't need the headphone or amp stuff I just need a DAC. I love the Qutest, but I think its the weaker link in my digital chain right now.
