Using the PerfectWave DAC MK II

Emil - the I2S is significantly better on the W4S DAC2 than the USB or S/PDIF inputs. You should be driving it with your transport I2S. Get a good cable, like the HDMI-12 on sale at partsconnexion.com With a USB to I2S converter, it is killer good.

Unfortunately the Wyred DAC1 does not have an I2S input like the DAC 2

I'm late responding to this thread, but I recently picked up a PWD MK II, and I'm loving it.

I had been using an Opus 21 CDP/DAC, sometimes playing from the computer via a HagUSB into the 96 input on the Opus. Now I'm wondering if I'll ever go back.

I'm driving the PWD from a Mac Mini, external disk, via a Stilnote USB cable, direct to a new Spectron Musician III Mk2 amp.

Especially for the price, I couldn't be more pleased with the setup.

Rhanson, have you tried wireless remote controll of the PWD yet with an iPhone or iPad?

I'm running eLyric app on my iPhone and iPad to control the PWD. I think due to timeout issues on the iPhone, it's better on the iPad.

I'm using the bridge to access my music on a laptop. A huge improvement in sound quality is using ethernet connection instead of wireless. I ran a Cat5 cable from my office router to my family room where my system resides.
