PS Audio PWD MkII vs W4S DAC2


Has anyone done a comparo between these two DAC's. Love my W4S Dac2 but if the PWD MkII is a big step up, I might get the itch. Most interested in coax connection; less in USB.

Thanks.

Good luck with that...the PWD should be quite a good piece of equipment. Take your time.
Gago1101, I have read the PWD needs significant time to break in. Head on over to the user forum at Psaudio.com for more info.
I've heard the Oppo 95 and, against my well-broken in PWDII, it's no contest. Your unit needs several hundred hours to sound its best. Don't turn it off between sessions and let it run for at least two weeks continuously. Anthony Cordesman of TAS and hundreds of discerning audio fans who can afford far more expensive DACs than the PWD are not crazy in their selection of this DAC. Of course, there are better DACs than the PWDII; the stock Oppo is simply *not* one of them. Like any high end DAC, the unit will sound it's best with the best possible digital interconnect.
Very sound advice from Vhiner, much word of mouth confirmation from owners say it's a exceptional DAC.
