Hello
So after a lot of reading and talking to folks, I think I´ve narrowed it down to the following
==
MPD-8 Playback Designs
Holo Audio May KTE
MSB
==
But it´s 85% of a chance that I am going for the Playback Design. I´m looking for a DAC that can give the music emotions and dont sound digital / harsh or thin.
Holo Audio were praised a couple of years ago for sounding "analog" etc. but I also heard that it was kinda dependent to be used with a computer and HQ-player to sound the best.
MPD should be in a totally other leauge looking at the pricepoint alone.
MSB is also interesting, but it seems that it´s more analytic than Playback Design.
For those of you that switched to MPD-8; what did you have before and what are your thought about it. Is is a DAC that will settle you for a long time?
I dont understand that it´s softwarebased somewhat FPGA and a lot of it´s greatness is becuase of Andreas Koch. And that all files gets converterad and upsampled to DSD.
Anything that´s negative with the DAC?
Thanks
