Has anyone compared the Merason Reuss and DAC 1 ?


I haven't been able to discover any comparative reviews online of these two units. 

Has anyone here tried both?

Thanks for your comments. I'm not familiar with your Audionet gear. Is it SS or tube?

One reviewer said the Reuss was tonally on the lean side, which concerns me.

While not seeking a euphonic presentation, if lower mids are dialed back too far, it will affect emotional engagement for me.

 

The Audionet gear is all solid state. I would say it is fairly neutral. I saw a recent review that said the Reuss was a bit lean, I disagree with that. Merason is very musical, with a touch of warmth if anything. That is my opinion of course, my system, my ears.
