PS Audio uber dac

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?

I’ll put it this way ,price of said component has no bearing on performance.
 This notion of “you get what you pay for” really doesn’t apply in this hobby .
If the three were equally priced it was really a matter of taste and the Yggdrasil analog 2 won , sure there were other factors involved however they were minor . 
For now I’m satisfied however there is one dac I would like to check out in the near future and that is the Rockna Wavedream .

Well, Andreas Koch's MPD-8 has already gotten one rave review. Hopefully, Playback Designs will market the Dream Series just a little bit. There won't be much hype, but who will bet against the result?

I haven’t tried the Yggdrasil (I do hate having to type that) but am considering getting one in to try on a trial basis. Of course there IS the "restocking fee" they charge so they don’t make it easy the way PS Audio does and I do like the Directstream. I ended up buying the Directstream Jr because I hate touchscreens so I also know there are some who believe Jr is a stepdown from Sr and others who believe any perceived difference is confirmation bias but I trust that people hear what they hear period. STILL, really digging the directstream at the moment and you have to remember with this gear that NO ONE should pay retail for PS stuff...I paid 62% of retail for a new unit from an authorized dealer so just remember that when you’re talking about the price of that gear.  ALSO been thinking about trying the Metrum Acoustics DACS since I have a distributor in my home city.  Any thoughts about Metrum Acoustics?
