In Reply to: RE: REVIEW: Metrum Acoustics Octave DAC Processors posted by sbrians on March 22, 2014 at 08:33:25
I rarely post on ANY forum, but thought I'd chime in. I methodically went up the NOS food chain, Ack Dac to Ebay Valab to modded Tera Dac to Metrum Octave to finally, audio NIRVANA, HEX!!! All y'all can stop right there.The Hex is AMAZING!!! I have tons of vinyl and a Marantz TT and Graham Slee preamp sitting around, collecting dust, because of Metrum's products. I can't sleep because all I want to do is listen to all the music I missed in the last 30 years!!! I have an IPOD (go ahead and laugh) into a Pure i20 into a Nordost Silver Shadow ( And a Sony DVP-3000 previously owned by Steve McCormack) to a Monarchy Combo at 24/96 to another Nordost Silver Shadow to the Hex to a Promitheus Reference TVC balanced out ( Harmonic Technology Truth-Link) to Odyssey Stratus Monoblocks to Gallo Reference 3.1's with sub-amp. Holy Moly Mother of Music!!! Heaven!!!! Nuff said!!!!!

At about the 150-200 hour mark and I'm in love. Liquid, palpable, empty black background, moving, resonant and voluptuous. Plus a million other adjectives, all good. Just had to say 'cuz I'm amazed and in love with the Hex. Beyond great vinyl without the noise, you can almost touch the music and hold it in your hand. Buy it.
Well that may qualify as a good review of the Hex.
It's like I suggested - that Metrum owners become more interested in listening to music than reading/posting about listening to music, so there are few reviews.
