alejomach Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 (edited) Item: PS Audio PerfectWave CD Transport Location: Syd Price: $2200 Item Condition: Excellent Reason for selling: Not using it... Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only Extra Info: This is an excellent transport! Plenty of great reviews on the net. I'm the original owner. I bought it from distributor. I have rarely use it in the last three years, so it is collecting dust... and I would like to try something else. I have original double box to be sent any where in Aus but I would prefer local pick up. https://www.psaudio.com/perfectwave-memory-player/ Photos: Advertisements without photos of the actual item will not be approved.

Guest scumbag Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 I heard one in Perth a few years ago linked to a DSD DAC via I2S. Amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anewmission Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Is this the same technology as the directstream current model?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alejomach Posted June 24, 2019 Author Share Posted June 24, 2019 I believe it is same tech. It has digital output "I's connection" for PS DACs. PS audio recommends this connection as the best sounding connection for their combination transport - Dac, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the main difference is the newie plays SACD but there might be other differences as well, some homework for you- https://www.psaudio.com/directstream-memory-player/ aand the newies is a bit more than a couple of $k.

Wiki tells me I2S was developed by Phillips I think that you will find that PS Audio is using the I2S format implemented over a HDMI connection. PS Audio may not have been the first to do it this way. They were definitely early in the the implementation though. There is no agreed standard for I2S over HDMI. Several other companies do follow the PS Audio pinning John Edited June 24, 2019 by Assisi word Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
