” All the vocals were a bit highlighted, which gave them only sensuality. Even voices usually quite difficult to reproduce, such as Asaf Avidan, Jon Anderson, Bruce Springsteen singing falsetto, sounded extremely engrossing. But not only men’s voices got an extra portion of sensuality. There was some “Lumin Touch” in the sound – everything was consistent that it sticked me to the speakers for hours. I cann’t omit electronic music, especially this – let’s call it classic – from the old days where analogue synthesizers dominated. Jarre, Vangelis, Detlef Keller – due to the consistency and sound temperature of Lumin, they were all exceptional.”

“I ran in the review unit for a few months on and off before sitting down to enjoy listening for many more weeks thereafter. I used the DAC-200ts during my review of the Bel Canto REFStream and even gave it some miles with the Auralic Aries as part of its break-in process. Throughout all of this time, yea I even aurally peaked for pleasure during those first few weeks, the Cary DAC delivered the musical goods. Its sound is big, solid, well-defined, rich, and musically engaging. It is fuller sounding than the recently reviewed NAD C 510 (see review), and even out body slams the Auralic Vega.”

“I listened to an old standby: The title track of Norah Jones’s Come Away With Me (24-bit/192kHz FLAC, Blue Note). Like that cognitively dissonant piano, Jones’s voice sounded spookily clean and natural. Had she been actually standing there, singing right into my ear, I’m not sure I’d have heard any more detail or air or depth. But for the absence of her breath tickling my ear hairs, I could have sworn she was right next to me”
BRYSTON BDA-2 DAC REVIEW

“Last but not least the stunning factor would have to be the staging. Many a times studio based products is overly focused on the mixing and mastering to allow the engineers to perfect their production. Some might had forgetten that music enjoyment is not just based on tonal balance and the sense of scale and space is a major factor as well. This is where the BDA-2 outclassed that aspect astoundingly. The soundstage was simply phenomenal with over the top instrument separation which gave such scale and space that one is often looking for.”

” Now, moving inside of the chassis – this is where the magic happens. The Exogal team has an extensive history – not only in high-end audio design but also other disciplines like GPS, broadband networking, and various other non-audio fields. This allows for a different approach, a road less traveled by designers who lack this experience. ”

“The soundstage is fairly compact, but it’s precisely layered and stable. The DAC in our Naim NDS/555PS streamer certainly goes wider, having more of a sense of space, but the Zodiac still satisfies.”

” The Nēo 260D once again reaffirms why MOON gear is so popular among the TONEAudio staff. Most audio companies do one type of equipment well—not so with Simaudio; each of its products is first-rate for its price point.”

” The newest Wadia 2000, driven by the glass fiber-optic interface, is superbly musical and in many ways represents the state of the art of digital playback. It is clearly and dramatically improved over the earlier version auditioned, and when driven by a Wadia transport with glass-fiber output, takes another leap up in musicality over earlier production.”
Musical Fidelity M3si integrated amplifier & DAC Review

“Partly because the M3si needed proper a run-in and partly because the distributor was in no hurry to collect the amplifier I continued to use it for longer than normal. It turned out to be a fine partner to my system, offering a wide open and beautiful sound. In truth I have not been able to discover any real shortcomings, save to mention that the USB input lags when compared with the line inputs. Maybe Musical Fidelity is still more convinced about the quality of CD players compared to streaming”
