Have any Palisade DACs made it to dealers and if so any feedback from dealers and possible new owners on the sound quality? ---

Well, there are exactly two units in the world. 1. The black unit, which is now safely installed in my home system (I love it btw). I have waited a long time for this one, and happily swapped out my Premier DAC for it 🙂 2. The Silver unit, currently in our factory listening room. That Silver unit will be on its way to the Hong Kong Audio show with Jonathan in the next few weeks. New Production units are flying along! We just sent a pallet of chassis metal to the anodizer, so we will be well stocked when the PCB’s are finished. Code is finalized so there will be no programming delays or further refinement needed. As far as product launches go, it has been smooth sailing and is looking like it will be a very clean launch! ---

And timing is still Q4? ---

Yes, we will try to start sneaking a few out perhaps before Q3 ends. Production spools up slowly, but once it gets started things should move quickly. ---

Woohoo! I am getting anxious. ---

Daniel is not willingly giving any feedback from his Premier to Palisade swap. Do you have a group of target listeners who hear new products as they are being developed or is it just the MSB inside people? ---

Is that an open solicitation 😉@MSB NC First impressions on the difference… Night and Day…. And not by a small margin. I’ve listened for a few days before the dac had to move on to a dealer for a demo/show. Cold out of the box. Musical flow pulling you into the music, loudspeakers dissapearing and music coming alive in the room. If the premier dac with the S202 was like the engineering marvel… then this is the fruition of that combination. More mature, body and texture. Like a good wine … delicious fine pallet and a amazing aftertaste that longes for more… ---

Couldn’t agree more Frank. I have a couple of weeks on my Palisade and it continues to impress me. The difference in the soundstage is so easily heard to be laughable. Depth, internal separation, symphony orchestras are defined by separate instruments in the space in front for you. I have now listened to a wide variety of music. Tender Eva Cassidy ballads, Sibelius Violin Concertos, Aerosmith, The Who, The Doors, Gene Ammons Sax, Jackson Brown, Marshall Tucker, etc. Nothing has failed to sound like the first time I heard it. What kind of magic is this?
