PS Audio Direct Stream

Gentlemen, most of these impressions are from DS that have less then 50 hours on them and at best a little over that. Wait until there is at least a good 100+, but I would expect that the DS might need as much as its predecessor the PW to show its true nature, so 400-500 hours would not be out of line.

Some of the reports that mention the softness etc, are from people that have reported that the PW needed 400-500 hours to show how it truly sounded.

Check post 923. He mentions how it is starting to improve etc.

Larrybou, Interesting comments, thank you.
I believe that everything is converted to 10 times DSD. Whatever that means...

I was also at the demonstration for the entire time. My thoughts are along the same lines as Sarcher30. I thought the depth of the soundstage was excellent in relative comparison to the stock player. The jury is still out for me. Listening in a room with a bunch of folks is always difficult and I would need to listen in my own room with a direct A/B comparison before I could fairly comment.

Goose, Thank you, for your thoughts and opinion.
The original hype from PS Audio was that, "it is a game changer"! I was under the impression that as soon as it was turned on the improved sound quality would be unmistakable.

That's my post, #923.. The DS is not rolled off or soft on top..It does need a lot of burn in..any other questions?
