Bryston BDP-1 Own one? What DAC are you using?


I have one on order and am very anxious for it to arrive.
At this point I plan to run through my Cambridge 840C's DAC coax input with Bryston's own BNC to SPDIF cable. Would love to hear anyone else's experience with it and what DAC you are using or recommend. I will likely end up also ordering Bryston's BDA-1 but don't want to spend another $2,195 if not needed. Any feedback you can offer on a DAC and also digital cabling is appreciated...

Having demo'ed the BDP-1 for a week, i agree with your software assessment. It's sound is head-and-shoulders above the Squeezebox touch, but software wise, far below. The included browser software is very rudimentary and frustrating.

I use a 500GB Seagate USB drive connected to the back. Once you connect the drive and turn off the BDP-1, the drive will appear as a share on your local network. You can then add files via your network and updates are much faster.

I'm looking for a installable Windows MPD server so I can use the iPad app to control it
