Obsession vs HP Digital American for DAC
« on: 5 May 2019, 04:14 pm »
I'm currently using a HP Digital American with my PS Audio Directstream Dac and wonder what differences there would be, if any, by upgrading to the Obsession?

Both are superb choices for your PS Audio Directstream DAC.

The "Obsession NCF", with the crazy expensive FI-50 NCF series of connectors ($385 & up EACH!), has 20% more conductors than the already beefy "High Power Digital American".

The "Obsession NCF" will provide a bit more deeper bass response and a bit more airy & effortless highs, while still remaining balanced. Depth of recordings will appear deeper & wider, while still focused...

I hope this helps...

Cheers,
Pete

Thanks, Pete. That does help. I now see why you named it the Obsession  :)
