Hi, have been reading a lot about PS Audio BHK serie and their top Dac. Do they deserve all the praise they are given, and do they hit way over their price class?
Just to clarify the manufacturing part. PS Audio is just down the street from my house. I been in there a couple times to purchase products and I don't think I have seen any manufacturing going on there, design and assembly yes. Correct me if I am wrong.
Having said that, it is a pleasure to see what is going on there and everyone is so nice and congenial. Last time I went I saw Paul standing in the shipping dock door laughing and shooting the breeze with someone. He greeted me and shook my hand and introduced himself.
I recently had a problem and thought it might be the PS Audio amp I just bought. I called them up and they instantly said get the product back over there for testing. But it was not a PSA problem.
Also look how they handled the fake power cords that were recently being sold on this site. They didn't have to do that.
@gryphongryph - - I do hear a faint hiss from my speakers when I am up close to them, but I do not notice it when I am at my listening seat ~8 feet away. It could be due to the Amperex 6922's I am using.
@lak - - No, I have not had the pleasure to hear the PS Audio system. I plan to check them out at Axpona this April, but that is probably not the same system as that at HQ.
The PS Audio DAC is upgradable. I started with a PerfectWave and upgraded it to a PerfectStream. The software upgrades are free. I am now using Redcloud.
