In dem US Online Magazin Future Audiophile ist ein Test für den Métronome DSC mini DAC erschienen. Der Autor geht in dem Test sehr ausführlich auf die technischen Details und die Wertigkeit des Konverters ein.
The Metronome DSC mini DAC is a purist’s DAC. Feed it a digital stream and wonderful sounds come out of it, no fuss or tinkering required. Its solid build quality should keep it humming along for decades without headache. The Metronome Digital Sharing ecosystem is something that may or may not interest the potential buyer, but I like the concept of adding more capabilities from the same manufacturer, even if they are separate boxes.
All of this is irrelevant if the Metronome DSC mini DAC doesn’t sound great, but it does. I’ve heard DACs that cost significantly more, which I did not enjoy listening to nearly as much as I did the Metronome DSC mini DAC. It has a very transparent and open sound, with great bass performance. It creates a large, rich soundstage that I never, ever got tired of listening to. At this price range, it is worth seeking out a Metronome DSC mini DAC, as it is a top-level competitor.
