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?
@mahler123, I am wondering - DSD does not output from coax in case of Oppo. So how were you able to compare the same SACD on Bryston Vs Mytek? Or maybe I got it wrong, and you are comparing only the PCM on both the DACs?
@plutos AKM4490, R2R, and SABRE implementations in general? Here are some DACs I can remember right now with those chipsets/designs, that I had recently or have right now.
The Mytek can not take SACD, as noted. I am comparing the SACD decoding of the Bryston vs the SACD decoding of the Oppo105
When I reference comparing the Mytek to the Bryston, I am refering to non SACD replay, such as red book CD, or my Bluesound (bypassing the DAC of the Bluesound)
np mahler123. You are so lucky to be able to compare 3 very good digital products! If I read your post correctly, are you indicating that you prefer the Mytek over Bryston for CD playback? I have the Bryston on my mind for future upgrade. Can't afford 2 DACs like you :-)
