PS Audio Stellar Gold DAC ?

@tubeguy80 

Thanks for sharing your experience. I wouldn't have even considered the S. Gold if not for Jay's (the young, Canadian Jay -- not the guy in Florida) surprisingly  effusive review.  

@audphile1 

Your input is very welcome, as always. Yes -- TMR is a very practical way to go. The Bryston DACs have been very favorably reviewed and the price is certainly appealing. Are the Brystons warmer than the Bricastis ???

"Manic Moose"? Is that for real?!  Was it designed by a Mainer, perhaps?  Too funny!

yes but keep in mind bricasti is not bright or analytical.

Manic Moose"? Is that for real?! 

that’s exactly what I wanted to call Bryston and ask. I guess they outsourced this software to a local high school as a project.

But that’s not to deter you from Bryston DAC. The streamer capabilities is an addrd bonus

Thanks for the additional information. 

The name "Manic Moose" does sound like something a HS kid might come up with!
