Wyred DACS


They released the final specs for their DACs last week. Shipping this month. Anybody order? The DAC-1 is quite reasonable, but not upgradable to the asynch-USB, which the DAC-2 has. The DAC-2 also has the I2S but I don't know what it's gonna connect to.

I will be organizing getting the Tranquility about the 18th August. But since I am in Australia there are importation issues etc that could delay things. I will have it clearly marked audio gear for evaluation so hopefully it should go straight through but these things are always iffy.

Thanks

No regrets... I have been using a Benchmark USB DAC with 16/44.1 files and it has been a very enjoyable piece going through an ARC LS-26 preamp.

I have since been ripping some of my vinyl to HD files, 24/96 and 24/192 so I felt that I also wanted to upgrade my DAC, but for now also keep the Benchmark. My choices came down to the Wyred DAC2, PS Audio PW, and the Bryston. The PS Audio PW was interesting only because of the bridge concept and the Wryed DAC2 being a new design could be something special.

The Bryston for me had always been the "Safe Choice", it's know for its musical sound and it's readily available to test as well as purchase. I installed one in my system and for me it's a keeper... wonderful sound.

Thank you Paul for sharing that with us. I think there is a good chance that I can find a Bryston dealer not to far from home. I will check them out.

Thanks again.
Hi Bill,

I look forward to hearing your thoughts about the Tranquility Dac. Have you ever spent time with the Bryston Dac?

Thanks,

Paul,

I'm curious as to if you have used the USB input on the Bryston DAC? If so, how do you think it performs via the USB.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
