RE: The PS Audio NuWave DSD Dac

IMHO, PS Audio is often overlooked because they're an established brand that has some reasonably priced products and they have been around for decades. They're not the exciting new kid on the block. ;-)

I replaced my Luxman DA-06 (~$5000) and the Ayre QB-9 DSD (~$3500) with the PS Audio NuWave DSD DAC (~$1299 MSRP, less with trade). I couldn't be happier with the sound!

I prefer (and have purchased for a second time) the PS Audio GCPH phono preamp (~$1000) which replaced the Aesthetix Rhea, EAR 834P, Musical Surroundings Phonomena II, and a few others. I played with several phono preamps over the years. When I decided to downsize the vinyl setup, I went back the PS Audio GCPH as my bang for the buck choice. It's what I consider to be an excellent sounding 'high-value' phono preamp that is very versatile for MM/MC cartridges.

Enjoy your NuWave DSD!
