Bricasti M3 vs. Holo Audio May vs. PS Audio DS


I don’t have any experience with DACs.  This is for streaming only.  Any thoughts?  Thanks!

Why spend so much money? You can buy a near-state-of-the-art DAC for $200! A Khadas Tone Pro 2! I have the earlier version! This DAC is competitive with any of today's four-figure offerings! 
I’d be extremely surprised if a 200.00 USD DAC has the same quality chassis construction, power supply, part quality and analogue output stage  (Also well thought out I/V conversion) implementation as a 4 figure priced DAC/CD player. All of these vital factors contribute to overall sound quality.

Cosmic Charlie I’ve never heard the Briscati M3 though I am aware of the brand , it’s beautiful ! plus it has a purpose built headphone section something of a bonus I think .

I don’t stream my music I find ripped to the hard drive of a 432 Evo Aeon server playback sounds better then streaming GeorgeHiFi currently has a very good thread on that very subject..

JasonBournes comments above on using a $200.00 dac while streaming could have more truth then we know ...



We are a bracasti dealer and there is more to selecting a dac then just sound quality

The m3 is modular and has allready been updated so one concern is can the product evolve?

The m3 also has an analog volume option and can play any kind of file it is also roon compatible and can stream

For all of these reasons the m3 is just outstanding
