There is a backlash already building up based on the initial reviews of the DacMagic. I guess a few people have waited so long, they are just less than impressed by the outcome compared to their expectation. Personally, I suspect the upsampling method that was used in the DacMagic. Reminds me of the troubles that DBX inflicted on audio signals.
Unfortunately theres a lot of people who just rely on these reviews when deciding what products to buy:mental:
Last time I tried a SRC4392 on the I2S in one of the dacs I ended up ripping it out after spending too much time faffing about with it
I sold my Audio Synthesis DAX Decade (rrp £3.5k) a few days back, and am now using my old Beresford Mk3 DAC. Sounds bloody good, it was always my fave of Stan's work (although I've not tried them all), and I'm in no hurry to find a replacement - in fact, I'm looking forward to trying Stan's soon-to-be-released 7510+. :)
Hi jerry,
If you have a Mk.3, have a word with Stanley about the simple mod. he sent me details of. If you use your DAc for Cd replay I can heartily recommend it - another 10 veils lifted, much better bass etc through a Sugden CD21/A21a set-up.

Jerry,
´Nuff said. I never even opened my gob.

Jerry didn't mean it in a bad way. His MK3 is a limited edition version of which less than 40 were ever made. Even up to today they still fetch between £60 to £80 on eBay, and the Champagne coloured version is a real rarity.
By the way guys, following advise and suggestions from people in the know, I finally managed to get my hands on a website address that reflects my brand name. Have a look at http://www.beresford.me
Feel free to make any suggestions for additions etc via PM or email if need be. I haven't yet made the site address known anywhere else, until I am happy that it is A-1.
Stan
And Chris didn't take it that way. Read what he wrote again, carefully ;)Quote:

Your new website is looking good!
Marco.
Hi Stan,
No offence taken at all. Au contraire, I find it really refreshing to find someone who knows what he likes and at the same time is very happy with what he has got. A difficult combination for most of us, I fear. I´m still working on it but I´m getting nearer, I hope.
All the best,
Chris
