My current home audio room is set up for mid-field listening is as follows:
PS Audio DirectStream Memory Player >> PS Audio DirectStream DAC >> Dynaudio 9S studio sub >> Merrill Audio Thor
Mono Blocks >> Dynaudio Confidence C1 II's (w/ Brickwall Series Mode Line Conditioner)
I'm well aware of the highly negative views here toward PS audio gear and, after 8 or 9 years of experience with a number of their DAC's and the DirectStream Memory Player, I'm largely sympathetic with those views. For me, however, the primary complaint has been unreliability issues.
Now my DirectStream DAC has given up the ghost and I'm in need of a new balanced DAC that will compliment the gear listed above.
A quick search has me leaning in the direction of the TOPPING RD3 TP.
Any thoughts by the experts here will be greatly appreaciated. Thanks in advance.
