It's cute in a Simaudio sort of way.
I didn't hear a huge difference when compared with the Simaudio 300D at double the price. The 300D sounded just a tick superior and hardly distinguishable at that. My biggest complaint is the power supply. I think they could have done better than a wallwart. I think Erik will like it.
Well, holy crap. What an amazing difference. They recommended leaving it on all the time, and giving it at least a few hours before trying to get it's best out of it. But if this isn't it's best, then I can't wait to hear what the good stuff sounds like.
The sound? Crystal clear. I've usually leaned towards a warmish presentation, and while this doesn't seem overly warm, it just seems....right.
Nice. I like the Moon stuff except for the amps. I wonder if it will change in presentation as it warms up?
Very nice gear! It took just four hours and forty nine minutes from letting us know you might have some new gear to pronouncement that everything was "all good". You sounded relieved and surprised that it sounded so good, but with taste and judgement like yours how could you ever doubt
Congrats on the new DAC.
