Introduction
In the PC world it seems people are obsessed with size. New tech products keep getting smaller and smaller. Many have smaller PCs that sit on smaller desktops and they are looking for audio solutions that are designed to offer the best sound in a smaller foot print. We have high end digital to analog converters, headphone and speaker amps all being built with size in mind.
Hailing from Taiwan, the Firestone audio company is starting to gain a lot of ground in the audio community in North America. Looking through their current sonic line up we see audio components that seem to truly be designed for the desktop audio enthusiast offering big sound in a small footprint.
The word in the audio community is these guys dont play when it comes to audio. Their component are built tough and above all else built to sound great.
Today, in the Guru3D Audio Lab we have two new products we can review. First we have the Mass Preamp and the Big Joe IV Class D Mono Blocks. We are excited to have a listen to these new components so lets get to the good stuff shall we?
Firestone Audio Bravo DP and Spitfire MKII DAC Review
According to Firestone Audio, their Bravo Digital Processor can convert USB to S/Pdif and also cleans and reclocks the S/PDIF signal producing a superior signal for your analog to digital converter. We have been working with many different S/Pdif based products in the Guru3D Audio Lab for quite awhile now so we are excited to have a look at the Bravo and use it for some testing. FSA also just released the second version of their popular Spitfire Digital to Analog Converter, known as the MKII version. So without any further delay, lets have a look at the Bravo Digital Processor and the Spitfire MKII Digital to Analog converter.
