PS audio or Moon

I traded in my BRYSTON BDP-USB/ BDA-2 duo stack on a MOON 280D MIND2 …it’s that good . Its build quality , digital interface, and audio performance is top-shelf … it requires an OEM recommended 400 hrs to fully run-in. (But the MIND2 current version already sounds fab out of the box,).

BIG BONUS: Upgrade path and warranty

If you bought from a dealer,

(1) Upgrade Option Going forward

- MOON will offer a full 100% purchase price trade-in value on an upgraded unit within the 1st year .

- MOON will offer a 75% purchase price trade-in value on an upgraded unit within the 2nd year .

(2) Warranty

-Register online and you get an upgrade to a 10 year warranty.

TAKEAWAY:

yep … any new MOON isn’t cheap, but you are stepping up to top-shelf best of and breed unit stratus , In this hobby, you get what you pay for.

Thanks peeps for the input.  Im kinda suprised that no love has been shown for the PS stuff.  I guess thats why we ask for advice.  Now trick is to convince the boss that "we" need the moon 390.  In my mind though it makes sense as itll bring the most out of my paradigms and anthem amp and may be the piece thats the anchor of my system moving forward  

I do a plug for PS Audio.  They operate less than a couple miles from my house and i have been through their facility. First rate. I have met Paul and he is really a nice person. I had the  S300 amp and had really good service out of the unit.   I wouldnt hesitate to recommend them.
