PS Audio PWD MkII vs W4S DAC2


Has anyone done a comparo between these two DAC's. Love my W4S Dac2 but if the PWD MkII is a big step up, I might get the itch. Most interested in coax connection; less in USB.

Thanks.

Accordinig to a number of posts on the PS Audio forum, the jury is still out on the latest firmware upgrade.
It easy to install so I always want to judge for myself. If you don't like it, just roll back to the previous version. Takes 5 minutes MAX.

BTW, is there a CONSENSUS best sound version?

I thought there was...

"2.4.3 is the best sounding DAC version so far." :)
Has anyone ever seen actual test measurements for the PWD?

Or are its virtues solely word of mouth?

Thanks,
Knghifi,

You say that 2.4.3 is best sounding DAC Firmware thus far. Was this immediately apparent or was some "burn in" required. (Not sure how Firmware burns in.) Can you elaborate a bit on the improvements?

I likely will try it but want to have some idea of what to expect.

Thanks.
