Anyone try the Bryston BDP-2 or the BDA-2 Dac

Anyone try the Bryston BDP-2 digital player or the BDA-2 Dac?
I am very interested in both of these units due to there capabilities.
The BDP-2 player is unique in its ability to play from large external hardrives and the BDA-2 Dac is supposed to mate well with the player.
But, I wonder how they compare in sound qualities to my present modified Touch with linear power supply.

Any supporting experience or opinions with these units would be appreciated.
Thanks,

I was seriously considering the BDP until I read the user's manual. It appears it has no WiFi capability and therefore only connect to you LAN via an ethernet cable. Hard to imagine in this day and age. Can any of you owners confirm this?

Thanks,

That is correct, Duddley, although it can be controlled wirelessly via laptop, iPAD or iPod.. I don't find the requirement for an Ethernet connection to be any big deal. Connect once and forget it.

Ozzy,

I saw that you have the PS Audio Direct Stream DAC. I have one on order, to replace my PS Audio PWD II. Await it with eager anticipation.

Cheers,

Neal

Neal, Congrats on the Direct Stream. My first impressions was it was sort of closed in, but be patient and give it time.
