Bryston BDA-3


  I have a lot of SACDs.  I am therefore intrigued by this Bryston DAC, claims to decode DSD from SACD over HDMI.  I can't find any reviews of the product.  Does any one have any experience with it?

Depending upon the recording some discs are reproduced with more apparent detail with upsampling on, but I generally prefer the sound with it off listening to the native sampling rates.
Ok. I have my unit.  Every SACD or Blu Ray sounds better than via the OppoPlanar 105 DAC.   But...I can't seem to get native DSD.  Every disc played triggers the Bryston LEDs that say I am getting DSD over PCM.  I've got the settings on the Oppo to output DSD from SACD.  Any ideas?
  Migh 24/96 downloads also sound amazing when played from a USB stick via the Oppo.  My other DAC, the Mytek Manhatten, won't play these without a horrible grinding noise at the end of each track.
  Alas, the red book and  other digital inputs sound much better with the Mytek...looks like I will be using 2 DACs.
@mahler123,
How long have you been using the Mytek? Is the Bryston BDA-3 new in your system? Curious because many reviewers seem to like th Bryston. How are you playing the SACDs on the Mytek?
