Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: What a big disappointment; NAD M51 with OPPO 105d (long)

I'm afraid I heard the M51 and came to the same conclusion. However, I heard it cold and had assumed it was just not broken in or warmed up. The Parasound ZDac V2 easily outclassed it, when just as cold.

The M51 had a hard treble and lacked low level detail and compressed dynamics.

BTW, I _LIKE_ the ZDac, especially for the price.

If you are looking for expensive, try the following instead:

Berkeley
Mytek
Schiit
Ayre Codex is also getting good buzz. Not heard it.

Best,

Erik
