PS Perfect Wave Trans/DAC versus Meridian 808.2

Yes, that deal is what is tempting me to look into this - thanks for the tip.

Are you kidding me, no player is on the same planet as the Meridian!!!!!

Is that a good thing is the question! ;-)

i got my perfect wave pair using that same trade in plan last year. they did it during intro in july 09. great offer imho. gave them $300-$400 worth of old gear and got 2k off the pwd & pwt. if you're in the market for a new dac/transport.....it's something i'd seriously consider. outstanding digital front end without the outstanding price.

have never heard the 808.2. have read it's a great player.

which one sounds the best would depend on what they're hooked up to and what you're looking to hear.

cheers

I agree with Ballan, I'd be skeptical of this new fancy filter...

I use the PWT transport coupled to a Audio Note DAC - no filtering, no upsampling, no oversampling, no nothing but MUSIC...

Haven't heard the PWD but I can vouch that the PWT is an AMAZING transport

Cheers
