I’m not a huge digital lover, but this is the third time I’ve owned this long-time Bryston component. It really is stellar, I’m sure there are better, but I’ve not found one, and I do love using it for SACD playback.
this is the first real digital I've had in a system since about 2010 (whenever the Bryston BDA-1 came out), and it really is convenient, the sound is greatly improved (running Roon via Mac Mini to Bryston BDA-3) and SACD's are much better through the DSD decoding on the Bryston. But, and I'm not trying to start the age old argument, vinyl just is so much more satisfying, and finally my digital system is not markedly inferior to my vinyl set up so it's a pretty good apples to apples comparison. I am loving this new Carver amp. It does sound as good as it looks.
Carver Amp is just now breaking in, and seems a great match for the Joseph Audio Pulsar's. I was going to go with a classic MC275 to start and then maybe try a a Pass Labs amp, but happy right now
