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

RE: Good question

I compared the Gundir Multibit and Nuwave DSD DACs. They both present music with a wide and deep soundstage, very good mids and good weight to the bass. The highs and low-end are nicely extended and textured. I found the Nuwave DSD to be more musical and have smoother, more natural highs. In my system, the Gundir was more detailed and analytical.

The difference in sonics may be largely due to PS Audio using a passive analogue stage and the large toroidal transformer. Also, they use a programmable device similar to the circuit in their higher-end DAC which reclocks the signal and reduces jitter, in addition to a ESS Sabre chip.
