insanely beautiful !

I can hear clearly defined sounds coming from behind and to my side... Three-dimensional layers that I hadn't noticed before!!

Congratulations! I've listened to this DAC several times—most recently just two weeks ago. Even though it's no longer in production, it's still one of the best you can buy.
 
A few words about the tremendous feeling of the upgrade in my setup and the overall result!

As soon as the music starts, you realize that this is a different experience than usual.
The soundstage is not only wide — it is incredibly deep and airy. The sounds are not placed schematically or two-dimensionally, but live in a real space, with layers of underlying information – a double bass positioned in physical space at the back, wind instruments on the sides at different heights, a singer’s voice floating slightly a meter forward above the speaker line, but with a clear three-dimensional “body.”

In other words: the result draws you in, doesn't push the sound at you. You're not listening to the music—you're in it.

It feels as if an acoustic portal has opened up in front of you. The MSB Select 2 works a quiet magic here – it doesn’t present the details, but rather completely dispels the sense of digital.
There is nothing artificial – no sharp edges, no tightness – just a deep, natural breathing space, one that tempts you to stay, to take another step into the sounds.
my PILIUM set , with total control of the flow, pushes air not with force – but with absolute confidence and silence. The dynamics are built from within, like a tense muscle under the skin – and not as something external.

The softness here is not some kind of “warm filter,” but a completely organic softness—the kind that comes from complete information, without flaws, without distortion.
A violin feels like wood, not like sound. You can literally imagine the bow hairs sliding over the strings.
A human voice—whether it’s a jazz singer or a soprano in Brooke—is fully present, with real vocal cord texture, natural chamber reverb, breath before a sentence.

The Kaiser Classic 3, in their speakers, bring an almost psychoacoustic touch – a sense of a physical human presence in the room. The instruments are not only heard, but felt touching the air around you.

The plucking of an acoustic guitar – you don’t just hear the string – but the finger rubbing against the string, the vibration on the body, the contact between the player and the instrument.
A piano sounds like a metal and wood body. You hear the internal hum, the pressure pads, the release of the pedal.
In conclusion:

"This is a setup that doesn't play music – it reminds you why music exists in the first place. It doesn't just reveal information – it reveals soul."

Among the few of its caliber.
 
A beautifully crafted system, @itay123. It’s a clear step up and I am sure it sounds incredible!
