another little update on my AM tube3 Dac....it continued to open up after 500 hrs of usage to the point that if you know a better Dac at $1500 please turn me on to it...this Dac just changed my way of Listening....HUGE soundstage...smooth as silk sound with enough punch to sink my Schiit Yggy2 to never never land....And Im thinking about
vassils upgrades that I may be sending it back to Vlad to MAX it out!! if and when i do i will report back...but even at stock(xlr upgrade) this RTR tube Dac kicks sum serious Analog ASS...THUTH!!
Another new DAC: Audio Mirror
Just ran across this last night. Never heard of them before but
as a Minnesota company tweaked my curiosity.
Audio Mirror Tubadour III non-oversampling tube DAC. Sounds interesting.
If anyone runs across one and has a listen please post.

Has anyone done a comparison of the Audio Mirror Tubadour III DAC to the new Holo Springs 2 Dac.(Level 2 or 3). I am interested in purchasing one of them soon,I have not done exactly that comparison, but I did consider the Holo Springs 2 Dac at some point and ended up buying a Denafrips Terminator at the end. All the reviews I read made the Terminator a winner between those two. Here is one: https://www.audiostream.com/content/review-denafrips-terminator-dac "Compared to the Terminator, the Spring sounded vague, grayish, and slightly mushy. Though it hurts me to admit it, the differences weren’t subtle." After owning a Denafrips Terminator for several months, I heard the Audio Mirror and ended up selling the Terminator. You can read more about it in the post above. If I was to pick between the Holo and AM, I know what it would be. But that's me and my system. What works well in my system ans satisfy my music taste may not work that well for you. But if you have a chance, give the new AM DAC a try. I highly recommend it. |
Thanks
vassils...will do....any other upgrades/besides the Caps and power supply....I decided to send it back to Vlad and let him work sum more magic on this little gem! |
