Wyred DACS

I just noticed the note on the W4S web site about this.
My DAC 2 was shipped from W4S on Friday, hopefully it has the fix.

I've been following this thread and others for the last 3-4 months and was really hoping for great things from the Wyred DACs. I've been a big fan of the Wyred amps for several years.

However, my feeling is that it just isn't happening... at least for now. I saw one pro review and it was a list of all the nifty parts but couldn't seem to review the sound. All in all this has been a very frustrating piece of audio gear to make a determination on. Also, without a way to hear one before buying adds to the frustration.

I have been ready to call and order one on several occasions and give Wyred the benefit of the doubt, but in the end I'm going to pass and go with a more proven, musical sounding DAC.

Thanks to all who have provided their comments!

I hear what you're saying Paul, but if you are referring to the 6moons review, it hasn't come out yet. They have a preview that mentions the features, but a full review has not been published yet. I'm looking forward to reading it.

Pkubica, I took a chance an ordered one (DAC2) a few weeks back, and as previously mentioned it shipped Friday.

I as you had high hopes, unfortunately, now I'm a bit worried, especially considering the W4S restocking fee policy.

Hi Paul,

I know what you mean. What other dac are you considering? Will you be using the usb input?

Thanks,
