There was also a rather nasty white noise in track transition with WAV files.My experience with the Bridge has been better. I get virtually no delay with 16/44, 4-5 seconds (sometimes less) with 24/96, and 6-8 with 24/176 or 24/192. Given the large size of the files involved at 176 and up, it seems reasonable to expect a little delay for the first file in a playlist, or with any file when using a device that does not support gapless playback. The transition noises have been addressed through firmware upgrades (see PSA forum for more on this); I was fortunate never to experience them, although others certainly have. (Another audio mystery . . . ) I certainly agree about the DirectStream: mine was superb-sounding within a few hours, and just keeps getting better. It may well be the best-sounding component I've ever owned. (I have some good stuff but can't afford megabuck pieces.) |
