Moon 390 Network Streamer


Still evaluating numerous DAC/Streamers and had the opportunity to listen to Moon 390 Network Streamer. Any thoughts on Moon products in general and the 390?

Recommendations are greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I have owned a 390 for a couple of years and have been very pleased with its sound. I tend to be a tweakaholic, and the Moon 390 has never failed to reveal the most subtle of differences in my explorations. 

Customer service is excellent: prompt, personal and knowledgeable. Who can beat a 10-year warranty?

Judging by the positive reception of their new 800 series, you can be secure that Simaudio will be here for another 40+ years...

@skads_187 if you go for Luna, the Mauve is the sweet spot. Organic , well-rounder sound, detailed but not analytical. Cardas Clear rev1 is amazing but not cheap.

@ericba I see thanks, would the Luna gray or Orange be ok? Seems like Mauve is a out of my budget sadly. 

Well Gents, I'm going to purchase the Moon 390. Eventually I need to get a new amp when funds allow. Thinking about the 330A or 400M. Which amps are you using for your set-up? I currently have an.ATI 4005 amp, Marantz AV 7706 processor and Sonus Faber Sonetto V speakers. 

The room is a dedicated HT (Wife uses it about 4 times per week). I want to expand upon 2 channel. Recommended cables (interconnects - XLR) Currently have Kubala Sosna anticipation cables. Thanks for your input. 

Are you buying used or new? Its a shame you have the preamp section in the 390 because I would probably suggest the 600i v2 if you can get it used. I sold my v1 for so cheap compared to what its worth, and its great. There is of course the 860 if the budget allows and you want to stick with Moon. Other considerations would be pass labs x150.8. Cables, look at the discussion I am having in this chat with ericba. He recommends Luna cables.
