PS Audio uber dac

@in_shore If sound quality was the only thing you cared about, and you were to pick between the PS Audio DirectStream and the Denafrips Terminator, which one would it be? 

in shore...Yes...personal taste is of paramount importance when it comes to the sound quality of one's audio equipment choices. 

I do own both the DS dac and DMP transport and think most highly of the sound quality offered by the combo via hdmi. The dac has been trouble free since the get go.. but the transport does have a few glitches that can be annoying. There is supposedly to be a whole new firmware release at months end to fix all misgivings with it...here's hoping to a fully functional player. I am sure it will happen.

Nenon It would be the Denafrips connected to PS Audio Direct stream player checked out through Magnepan 20.7 speakers with subs including Focals Maestro Utopia speakers with subs that revealed differences between the two dacs .
However the Denafrips is a fairly new product with a unproven track record though I understand Denafrips now has North American representation if repairs need to be done.
The PS Audio is in my estimation is poor value for your dollar and the Terminator selling at $4,500.00 I feel the price point is also poor value after listening to a fully run in Yggdrasil analog 2 at $2,400.00.

Aolmrd1241 I know this to be a constant complaint of some owners when I first unpacked and hooked up my new PS Audio dac the screen was blank though the problem was temporarily solved by rebooting the dac I did have other screen issues occasionally with the Direct stream player along with a continuous motor noise at one point, could be unit to unit production differences , parts etc etc ,.

In_shore, is there anything with the sound of the Schiit Yggdrasil A2 you don’t like or is deficient compared with the PS Audio and Denafrips you previously owned?
