Sound Upgrade from a Bryston Bdp-3

I dumped the bdp3 due to software problems but I thought it sounded great, and I was running it into the same DAC that you are.

Have you tried with with another source besides Tidal?I used Qobuz and my NAS

Im using AES connection With Orchid Illuminations cable.

Tried all inputs  RCA ect with Silnote Morphias

Still upper Midrange Highs are somewhat elevated comparred to my Jays Transport

Compared Tital to Qbuzz Tital sounds less congested

@hiend2 I would use AES with Jay’s and USB between BDP and BDA. Try a good USB cable before you switch streamers. Also a good power cord is essential with BDA-3.  
 

FWIW I ran Lumin U1 Mini with BDA-3 via USB. Tried AES but still preferred USB. The sound was never harsh. Lumin app is pretty crappy but so is the Manic Moose. If you’re looking for a nice streamer look into Aurender.
