PS Audio FPGA dac

Thanks, lwin.

Sunlight was released about a year ago...the DS v2 was intended to have been released by now, but hopefully this summer...they stated no more updates would be released...long threads on PS forums on the topic, though it seems a very high percentage prefer the latest update each time, though always some very vocal dissenters...some owners keep the SD card with the different updates, as it is easy to change

jl35,

Will wait for Mk 2. Cheers!

Mine’s a keeper. The updates are done but you can still get most of them on their site, all independent of each other. I got it direct for <$3500 with junk trade ins. It’s a good buy at that. Plenty around pre owned. Darko equated it with the Dave, two firmwares back. The last OS pushed the soundstage back better than moving the speakers.

I’m thinking the Mk.II will cost 5 figures.

agree with fuzz that at 3 grand the psa-ds is a decent buy, even with the unit now at end of life in terms of further development and updates

the firmware versions materially change the musical presentation of the dac, though it takes a little patience to reload earlier or later versions if you want more warm/romantic or more forward sound

the bridge feature isn’t too good though, hurts sound quality

in my experience it is a full step below the chord dave or mscaler/hugo tt2 though...
