For some reason it took around 500 hrs for the bass response to settle in on my PST in my system. Almost gave up, but glad I hung in there, it sounds amazing fully broken in. Nice upgrade from the DMP

Wow! 500 hours! Wouldnât that be 8 hours per day, every day, for two or more months?
I got luckyâa couple days.

I think yours spent a season in the PS Audio break room before being packed up. You got lucky indeed.
I played it non-stop via the USB drive until I felt it was broken in.
I have a question about the PST. Does the purchase of this unit make sense for those over 65 ? I have the DMP, but I also have mild loss of hearing due age considerations. When I had a hearing test recently, I was informed that my chart was slightly off for tweeter sounds.

Sorry, I canât help you there.
I have the DMP as well and have never laid eyes or ears on a PST.
I have just been encouraging a fence sitter or two to take the plunge b/c I found the DMP added a considerable improvement to the sound of spinning discs in my system and the PST is purportedly even better than the DMP.
All that said, if you can appreciate what your DMP does for your system as a critical component, I have no doubt you would appreciate a PST as well - sight unseen/hearing unheard.
Hopefully others will chime in that have experience with both pieces of kit.
Cheers.
Hmmm⌠May explain why I received shipping status so quickly.

If I hadnât already spent so much energy on Tedâs DSD mods, I might not have been so excited to buy the PST. Considering my old transport was completely pissing me off, the stars just aligned.
Really pleased with all my digital gear right now. Probably gonna keep this set-up for a good couple of years and donât plan on changing much outside of a better and cooler fanless/headless linux box to replace the very same current such thing.

I think so.
We all experience sound imperfectly; no oneâs hearing is perfect. Everyone experiences the same concert as their hearing allows. A good system reproduces the event so that we hear the same thing at home.
Whatever our hearing may be, good audio equipment brings our experience of the world of sound into our living rooms.

The review amuses me a great deal as he had a picture of an EinstĂźrzende Neubauten CD in the drawer. Testing Audio Equipment with EinstĂźrzende Neubauten is pretty much the same thing as testing a computer laptop by driving over it again and again with your car.

Itâs a relative comparison. What you are able to hear will sound better.

I am 73 and it makes a HUGE improvement over DMP. I donât think high frequency hearing ability has anything to do with the differences we hear in the entire frequency spectrum. Itâs significant.

A fave all the same, not best for listening to my âstereo system,â but for the music. Of course with my cheapo wire I wouldnât hear the difference.

My new PST arrived early a few days earlier than expected today, so I got it set up this afternoon. I have no special tweaks in place yet. Only running it for now through a Schiit Gungrin DAC via a Blue Jeans digital coaxial cable, a stock power cord and Blue Jeans XLR cables (to BHK Pre). I am rather impressed, as it sounds pretty impressive right out of the box and this is only the Redbook CD layer!

Very exciting!
Looking forward to hearing more about your experience as you get to play around with the PST and the various DACs at your disposal.
Enjoy.
