For the price I would ask to see measurements on it. What's the SINAD? Intermodulation distortion? Jitter noise? Linearity? What you're describing is typical "ladder dac" high frequency roll off and distortion. I would expect that in a cheap R2R implementation not something at this price.
MSB Diamond DAC V
Looking to try a MSB Diamond V Dac with Diamond Power Base Volume Control and Renderer. As a side note I have had the opportunity to enjoy the Lampizator Pacific, Esoteric Grandioso K1 my 2 favorites, DCS Vivaldi, Chord Dave but never tried the MSB. I was told that it's is a must listen to before I pull the ultimate trigger.
Please feel free to comment on your thoughts regarding what i can expect from the MSB Diamond DAC V.
Thanks.

blumartini OP Real transparent, dynamic, glare free musical presentation, with great boogie factor. This is what R2R dac’s can do when designed right and used direct into amp/s. They don’t try to soften everything to make the bad recordings more listenable at the expense of the good recordings like Delta Sigma dacs do. Cheers George |
