150 July/August 2013 the absolute sound

uring the years that J. Gordon Holt and I made

recordings together he often complained about the lack

of “pro” audio gear being reviewed in consumer audio

publications. Many times he found a particular piece of gear

that he wanted to review, but because it was sold and marketed

principally to professional audio engineers, it was deemed by his

editors to be inappropriate. He found this so irritating that he

didn’t write as many reviews in his later years as he might have, if

given freer rein. Gordon’s last reference speakers, the ATC SC-

40s, were just such a “prosumer” product.

Flash forward ten years; computer audio has reduced the gap

between pro and consumer gear to the point where they are

almost interchangeable. This convergence of current-generation

consumer and pro gear is a result of parallel technical paths. The

latest computer-audio pro and consumer products employ the

concepts. Nowadays differences in input/output options, routing

separating pro from consumer devices.

The latest generations of state-of-the-art DAC chips from

Cirrus Logic, Wolfson, and ESS have the built-in capability to

this added capability are from companies whose prime focus

has been the pro market: Mytek, Benchmark, and Lynx. But

the $1595 Mytek Stereo192-DSD-DAC, $1995 Benchmark

DAC2 HGC, and $2495 Lynx Hilo all bridge the gap between

pro and consumer so completely that, except for where they

are purchased, the difference is moot. I have no doubt that this

would have pleased J. Gordon Holt immensely.

The Mytek Stereo192-DSD-DAC

Manufactured in Poland, the Mytek Stereo192-DSD-DAC was

were A/Ds and D/As for the pro recording market. According

to one of Mytek’s background papers, “The ADCs and DACs

prototypes designed by Michal have been used to record many

now classic albums of David Bowie, Lou Reed, Mariah Carey,

James Taylor, B52’s, and many more.” In 2005 Jurewicz was

commissioned to design a DSD master-recorder for Sony’s

SACD division. And while SACD’s moment in the audio sun

was distressingly brief, the experience put Jurewicz in an ideal

position to make a DAC/pre that supports DSD.

The Mytek Stereo192-DSD-DAC comes in three versions.

The differences involve ergonomics and cosmetics. Fortunately

for consumers, all three have the same price. The “standard”
