arancano + 1. I made the mistake of posting this on the ASR site a couple of days ago. Silly me.
My post starts on page 70. You might be interested in the back and forth between me and a few ASR regulars. I finally gave up and stop responding because I knew anything I said was pointless; and to be honest, some of their condescending and hateful posts were beginning to piss me off.
I received the DSD yesterday. I'm burning it in, and will start A/B tests with my Audio Mirror Tubadour III SE DAC in a week or so. I like the Tubadour DAC a lot. I'm anxious to see if the DSD sound is worth the additional cost.
I just joined this forum today. I read with interest many of the comments in this thread regarding the DirectStream DAC's not so glowing specs. I've only had a few DACs in all of my more than a few years on this earth, but, when making a buying choice, I let my ears decide rather than digging into the spec weeds to decide. In other words, I'm more concerned about a DAC's capabilities and what it sounds like in my system. I just ordered a DirectStream DAC yesterday. I've got thirty days to evaluate it; and if I don't like the synergy, I'll send it back. But, I'm pretty confident that I will like it.
