| Bidat vs Perfect Wave vs Weiss and others I have a power dac which is according to MSB is a Platinum without the modularity. The power dac has the 16x filter not the 32x filter and it has the second gen dac modules not the signature. I have been told by unnamed persons at MSB that it is v... | |
| Bidat vs Perfect Wave vs Weiss and others One other thing concerning the MSB, you have probably read people describe its character (sound) as laid-back. It is... it is a very languid sounding unit, and if you decide to team it with a preamplifier, I suggest you do NOT use a laid back euph... | |
| Bidat vs Perfect Wave vs Weiss and others Tomorrow marks the 2 week run-in of my modded Bidat. It has changed dramatically in those 2 weeks. I think by now you folks know that I like my Power Dac, but the Bidat is beginning to pull ahead and open the gap a bit. I was asked by a fellow aud... | |
| Bidat vs Perfect Wave vs Weiss and others Ok, so I will try to make this concise and clear:With about 25 hours on the Bidat I did some preliminary testing last evening. Note that John Wright has informed me that the Bidat mods need 3 weeks to fully settle in so this is a sort of "take it ... | |
| Bidat vs Perfect Wave vs Weiss and others John Wright just told me he didn't want to hear my opinion on the Bidat until 3 weeks have elapsed LOL!!! | |
| Bidat vs Perfect Wave vs Weiss and others The one that's for sale was also mine, I had 2 of them :) | |
| Bidat vs Perfect Wave vs Weiss and others Ok, so my Bidat showed up today the very latest mod from John Wright. With only about 30 minutes on the clock I will say that I find it a bit more musical than the MSB. It was wierd it was like it clicked when the components inside started heating... | |
| AMR / EMM / PLAYBACK Designs Enzo618 and Essentialaudio: I agree that reviews are but one tool in the tool-box. I typically will find reviews by a reviewer of a product which I have heard and know to be poor sounding (to my ears) in order to get a baseline of their tastes. Al... | |
| Museatex Bitstream vs Bidat Vhiner, thanks for the update. I will let you know what I hear, as I stated I sold one of my Bidat with the older mods, and I will comment on the new unit soon. | |
| Museatex Bitstream vs Bidat Vhiner, I am waiting to hear you results. I sold one of my Bidat unit and the other is on the way to me as I type with the very latest mods from John. This is the one that I will be comparing to my MSB from my other thread. | |
| Wadia-9 Recap Not a bad idea at all after over a decade of use. I strongly suggest you send it to Steve at GNSC. | |
| Bidat vs Perfect Wave vs Weiss and others Hey Vance, stand by on the Bidat full on comparison. It took me so long to get the MSB singing I want to do justice to that head to head comparison. | |
| Any better DAC then dCS Scarlatti? The MSB stuffis fantastic, BUT it took me a long time to extract the best out of it. It is very picky about vibration contro and the source. I have the MSB Power Dac which is a Platinum Dac minus the upgrade path ability or user controls. The soun... | |
| Bidat vs Perfect Wave vs Weiss and others Thanks guys, the fact that anyone is interested in my findings makes it all worth while. I have never heard the Berkley so I cant comment on its sound. I would also like to know more about the Berkey converter, sounds very interesting. I have had ... | |
| USB DAC better than optical? Number one thing (IMHO) make sure you never use a plastic TOS. Use a real-glass TOS if you are not already doing so. It's a MASSIVE change for the better. |
