Has anyone heard the new PS Audio Perfect Wave?


What are your thoughts on the new Perfectwave DAC and transport? I heard it and was pretty blown away. The one disappointment is you cannot play SACD's. The sound quality has me thinking of what the future of audio will sound like.

been an owner of the pair since august. while the PWD/PWT are nice piece's by themselves, when paired together using a high grade I2S cable, they are out of this world imho.

i've never heard anything like it in the digital realm. whether it's hi res dvd or standard redbook.....the sound is incredible.

took my pair over to a friends house about 2 months ago to test differet hookups and compare against his esoteric front end (2 years old). a week later he had his own perfect wave set-up. nuff said.

give the PWD/PWT a listen and see for yourself. don't forget to use a high grade grade hdmi line like psa's I2S-12 silver line (this really makes a significant difference!)

the best digi i've ever heard and then some.

i think you can eliminate #1 as an option MrTennis. seems you have plenty of run time on your pair judging from one of your previous posts.

if you prefer the sound of your cd2 then it's gotta be #2 or #3...or a combo of both?.

i'm amazed that you use the words "analytical" and "fatiguing". my experience has been the exact opposite. one of the first things that jumped out at me was the smooth and non fatiguing sound.

just goes to show ya....different strokes for different folks. we're all looking for the same end result....sound that makes us happy. what that sound is and how to get it is where we all differ ;-).
