I will probably buy a Mytek Brooklyn next week and am seeking opinions on the better option for follow up service and repair if needed. Buy direct from Mytek in NYC or www.moon-audio.com? Moon has the Brooklyn in stock. I am using Tidal almost exclusively now and need a great DAC to decode MQA. Thanks!

 

Brookyn DAC+ becomes available on the 16th, so it is about a week away.

May be worthwhile waiting and then compare the Brookyn with this new + version.

just a thought

Mytek Introduces New Brooklyn DAC+ With Upgraded Performance; Now Shipping: Brooklyn AMP, Plus Optional Phono and Roon Cards for Manhattan II

 

2017 RMAF, October 6, 2017 — Mytek, manufacturer of professional ADC/DACs and consumer DACs, unveiled at RMAF 2017 a brand new model of the highly-acclaimed Brooklyn DSD/MQA DAC, the Brooklyn DAC+.

Brooklyn DAC+, priced at $2,195, features redesigned and enhanced conversion, analog and power supply circuits, resulting in overall improved sound quality. Improvements include the new Sabre 9028PRO DAC chipset for enhanced resolution and better digital filter options, upgraded headphone amplifier, better L/R separation, larger capacity power supply and new, very transparent analog attenuator circuit.

 

All these quality improvements result in even more convincing digital PCM, DSD and MQA playback and streaming as well as state of the art M/C, M/M Phono musical experience. The Brooklyn DAC+’s new headphone circuitry performance challenges many dedicated headphone amplifiers.

A lot of praises were written about the Brooklyn DAC, which has sold many thousands of units since the launch of MQA. The new Brooklyn DAC+ provides users with benefits of the newest conversion technologies, while retaining the amazing versatility and affordability that the original Brooklyn DAC has been praised for. 

 

Shipments of the Brooklyn DAC+ start Oct. 16th, 2017.
