Audio Mirror Wave Tube DAC review by Steve Huff


I became aware of this DAC through Steve’s recent review, and am very interested in it. Please post your thoughts, especially those who own, or have listened to, one.

Thanks,

Tom

My main goal in buying the Wave DAC was to eliminate that harshness and make all music, whether an audiophile recording or the 60s/70s rock that I prefer, sound pleasing to listen to for long periods of time. The Wave DAC has 100% done that for me. In addition, the sound is dynamic, fairly neutral, with a big sound stage. Beatles music sounds like it never has on my system.

Yes, because there is life beyond Dominique Fils-Aime, Dire Straits, Annette Askvik, and Steely Dan. 

Vlad from audio mirror is in this forum sometimes.  Maybe he will drop in and say something.

vlad is a good guy, earnest and hard working, makes decent stuff from his small operation

what huff is (or isn’t) isn’t a reflection on vlad and his gear -- just view this as huff providing no useful purchase info on vlad’s (or anyone’s) gear he ’reviews’

vlad sent his dac to huff for a review, can’t fault him for that as it provides some useful exposure... it is up to viewers to discern the value of the info the review provides

Whatever you think of Steve’s credibility as a reviewer, I appreciate his reviewing stuff that doesn’t get much exposure in the big online mags. I was maybe vaguely aware of Audio Mirror before his review, but it wasn’t on my radar.

I see positive reviews as filters for narrowing down my list of products that are worthy of looking into further, not as a green light to go buy them. Thus my post here. It’s hard to put something on one's list, when you are not aware of itwink
