Museatex Bitstream vs Bidat

I just traded message with John. I will send him my Bitstream first and then the Bidat. Any power cord suggestions for the Bitstream? I haven't been able to decide on one and am still using the stock cord. I am using a really nice Shuyata one on my Bidat along with a Moray James digital coax. (His products are very tough to find, and almost impossible on the used market!)

I use the Shunyta Python CX on both units and MJ's latest digital. I'm too poor to go up higher in the Shunyata line. Sigh. John has Moray's email or you can email me for it. I haven't found anything better than this combination with the Museatex gear..YMMV. Which Shunyata are you using with the Bidat?

Upgraded A/D/S Idat/M by John Wright, powered by battery, beats both Bidat and Bitstream! When I bought this DAC from John Wright few years ago, John told me this DAC will sweep all the DAC off the planet, and will make me wonder what the fuss about SACD.

D160,

Those are very rare. I'd love to find one. Let me know if you ever see one for sale.

Ok, I have not heard the IDAT, but I will take your word for it. I already tremendously enjoy my Bidat and Bitstream DACs that were upgraded about a year and a half ago. I will be sending them off back to John for the latest and greatest upgrades in the next week or so. I have been using an older Shunyata Black Mamba cord on the Bidat and I usually just leave it powered on 7x24.

The rest of my two channel system consists of Mcintosh MC-501 amps, Mcintosh MX-119 pre/pro, Vienna Acoustice Mahler, Mcintosh MS750, Ultimate modified Denon 3910 etc.
