The PS Audio NuWave DSD Dac. What a great DAC. I have had many DAC's over the last several years. My ears find this to be the best DAC in my system. I am playing my redbook CD's and Tidal.Loving what I am hearing.I don't know if it's just system matching at it's best (Rogue audio amp/pre-amp.). Bang for buck,this has to rate right up top of the DAC's on the market. |

I'm really looking forward to the introduction of the new Oppo Sonica DAC supposedly coming in January. It is supposed to cost just $799 and yet be able to convert all formats of digital up through DSD_11.2M. Additionally, it is supposed to be able to play digital music directly from an external USB drive. That's really what excites me because I would like to eliminate the separate component used for streaming. Of course, I'm also hoping it sounds good because that will be the deal breaker. Currently, I'm very please with the sound quality of my TASCAM DA-3000, which is both a player and a recorder. My major complaint is that it accepts a maximum USB drive capacity of only 64-GB. However, its sound quality with DSD is as good as anything I've heard so far although I've not heard any of the PS Audio DACs. Best regards, John Elison |

Seems PS Audio no longer list the Nuwave DSD DAC at their site. |
