It took four years between me showing the first PCB that ended up being called the Bushmaster, and when it finally got completed. So I shall put you down for a reminder in a year or two :lol:.Quote:

I have the 7520 and a Xonar ST sound card in my PC which also has very good DAC capabilities in my opinion and that of others with more educated ears than mine. How many DACs does one guy need? :scratch:
I'm still going to pass on this for the time being but will monitor the thread and do my best to resist the temptation until ...... :lol: .

Be good to hear what you think Tony compared to your MF M1.Quote:

Just connected everything up which was a bit of a mission as I plan to make use of all the inputs. Sound straight from the box is lovely...just playing ryan adams via my sonos (flacs) and the bass does seem a bit deeper which is nice, without it being boomy. As with my last beresford I'm sure the sound will keep on improving.
My only issue is the auto switching....of which I have no doubt is down to the levels coming from my components.
If i have my sonos ZP90 connected via coaxial it seems to override all other inputs regardless of whether i have music playing....I also get the same from my virgin TV box via the optical....very annoying.
Anybody else having similar issues?
Aside from the above its great!
Hi Sean, you can of course use the manual switching mode instead of the auto mode. Some devices, such as a SKY box, could hug the digital input in auto mode. That's why I provided both options.
Sounds like you've got a winner Stan :mex:
Anyone tested the Bushmaster with an Apple TV yet?
Optical output is fixed at 48 Khz, I think. Someone said that something was wrong when they played a 16/44 file?
Just wondering if it's going to be better than my Dacmagic in my setup.
Cheers,
Hi stan,
I'm quite happy using the manual switch . . I'm more concerned with my other half! She may be a doctor but technology is not her thing! I have a nice remote that when she presses a button, automatically sets everything up...this will kill her!!! Haha!
For me it's not a problem and my post wasn't meant as a complaint! Fortunately she loves her music as much as I do, so I think the dac will win her over in the end!
I'm really very happy with the sound of the Bushmaster, but over on the other BM thread, a few folk have mentioned improving things still more with the addition of mains conditioners, the sBooster or Stan's own battery pack recommendation.
Which of these three do you think would make a bigger difference initially? Is one worth trying one in particular before the others? I currently don't have any of these type of things in my system, and would be looking at spending around £30 on one.
Thanks for your thoughts.
