Review: Anedio D1 DAC - my new reference DAC - Page 64

Thanks all.

Happy Camper: The Bryston BHA-1 sounds perfect and the price for the version with the onboard psu is right at my preferred price point (1300 - 1400). I see on TTVJ there is a version without an onboard psu for 1100 but the external psu is 1700!?! So I wonder if there is audible difference and how much. There is an authorized vendor an hour away from me (without traffic...) so I might be able to bring my rig and do a test drive.

project86: I have been interested in the Violectric for quite a while as you guys are aware so I won't count that out. The price is great.

Kevin: The Peak/Volcano would be cheaper than the BHA-1/MPS-2 combo and I've read a lot of great things about it...

I really wish I was still on the east coast at this point so I could work a mini-meet. wink.gif Maybe I'll head down to Portland and do some listening.

Thanks for the replies! biggrin.gif

EDIT: According to a reply from a Bryston rep to a query from one of our fellow headphoneaholics the BHA-1 without the psu is just a money saver for those who already own a MPS-2. Inferentially, this would mean there is no degradation in sound quality. I won't be spending 135 percent (sic) more to see if that's true... I do understand what offboard psus offer depending on amp board layout/shielding.

Sigh... I should wait for a big Pacific northwest meet.

To be honest, all of those options are great choices. I can't imagine many people being disappointed with the Apex stuff, or the V200, or the Bryston. You basically just choose based on other factors as much as sound - size, inputs/outputs, price, appearance, availability.

I would say not to forget looking at the mjolnir as well, great headphone with the LCD-2/3s from audeze, other headphones too Im sure, those are just the only ones I have heard on it

I did frown.gif I'm pretty sure I left them in the back of a seat pocket in my plane ride home from oregon over Christmas. I submitted a lost form thing on the united website but I haven't heard anything back and it's been like 3 or 4 weeks
