Beresford Bushmaster DAC

I am sure it mentioned before Dave
The sound quality of the Bushmaster is very good indeed and pretty sure it willl challenge a lot of the big boys

which other DACs did you use for your comparison?

Werner.

I heard a lot of DACs but just heard this in isolation at Stans. It had a lot of resolution

I happened to have lent it to a fellow trader, who is registered on AoS as audioflair. He managed to test the Bushmaster against a range of DACs and CD players, before he shipped out the orders for those products used in the comparisons. He wrote a bit about it in this thread.

But don't worry Werner. I shall send you a loan unit to try out once I have the production on the way :). No purchase required on your part as you have been a loyal customer for years.

I see, thank you for your quick reply. In my opinion direct A/B comparisons are indispensable, especially when trying to notice subtle differences with DACs.

many thanks for this really generous offer, but the third Schiit Bifrost DAC already is on the way to my home. It shall replace the last remaining Caiman in my living room’s system. Two days ago I did an A/B comparison, swapping only the DACs, but using the same headphone amplifier and headphones.

John had a Gatorized Caiman sitting next to it to compare it with. But first he spent about 6 weeks listening to the Caiman so that he was familiar with its performance, before then comparing it to the Bushmaster.

I am just giving a overall view point around the DAC not a comparsion so hence not a detailed response more of a impression
Lets just say I was impressed

I see the predicted Caiman selling frenzy has started on ebay,ahead of the Bushmaster release.At least half a dozen at last count,getting strong money thou',best get in quick whilst the price holds.Must be mainly those rare people with only one system.:whistle:
