Playback Designs vs. Berkeley

Jtinn: "It will do beyond 5.6 mHz through USB. This feature will also be available to all of our existing customers with their current converters."

Hi,
Will this be a software or hardware upgrade for existing customers?

Also what are the features of the new converter and how would it compare to the MPD-5.

I ask as I have just ordered the MPD-5.

Thanks

Jtinn,
Will the new DAC have volume control?

Mr.Tinn

“The Metric is a good pro-audio dac. It certainly does not compare to our products, nor is it meant to. You should really find a way to listen to it.”

The Metric Halo ULN-8/LIO-8 are great DACs and can compare to best audiophile units.

I’m interested in hirez PCM playback from a PC or NAS without the use of a soundcard or converter, so there’s no reason for me to find a way to listen to the Playback Designs units.

I hold no ill will toward you. I understand that you’re a dealer/distributor promoting his products. I’m not interested in any of the products that you sell, so there’s no need for us to communicate off line.

Good luck with your new DAC.

Aloha,

Kana813: Thank you.

I've heard and used the MH converters a number of times doing location recording. It's a great, but it doesn't hold a candle to the PD or even the Grimm, AX24 or even the Meitners.
