Bricasti M1 : The Dual Mono DSD DA Converter of the highest class.

According to experts, the best DA Converter in the world.

Introduction

Bricasti from the USA originally manufactures digital High End products for the professional world. The Bricasti M1 is the first of a series of High End products from the manufacturer. It is one of the first completely Dual Mono constructed DA Converters in the world. Furthermore, the Bricasti M1 is, like few other DA Converters, suitable for playing native DSD and DXD files.

Casing

The Bricasti M1 is built with CNC-milled aluminum sections and heavy aluminum panels. You will not find sheet metal here, but exclusively resonance-free panels. Even the top plate and bottom panels are milled. Everything to improve sound quality. All parts are heavily anodized and provided with text via laser engraving. Built to ultra-high standards and with a very long lifespan.

Technology

The Bricasti M1 is a completely Dual Mono constructed DA Converter. That means truly 2 Mono 24 Bit DA Converters in 1 casing. Each channel uses a Stereo ADI-1955 DA Converter in a completely balanced Mono configuration. There are 8 different digital filters available, including the latest Apodizing Filters (Minimum Phase) and linear filters. The Bricasti M1 locks at all frequencies from 16bit 44.1KHz to 24bit 192KHz and at DSD and DXD Files. Various digital inputs are available. AES/EBU, Toslink, SPDIF, BNC, and USB-2.

Also, an excellent clock has been used for the conversion. An ultra-low 6 picosecond jitter value is the result.

The Bricasti M1 has already been extensively tested by various leading publications such as Stereophile, Audiostream, Audio Esoterica and for French readers among us, Haute Fidelity

Sound

The Bricasti M1 is a DA Converter of the highest quality. The sound is completely analog, with no trace of digital harshness. The soundstage is enormous and exciting. There is a lot happening. The vocal rendition is also very special. Pure in structure and very precise placement. The artists appear live before you. Very special. It increasingly becomes apparent that you no longer listen to the technology, but are only engaged with the performance of the performers.
