“I thoroughly enjoyed my time with this DAC. Its sound is matched by its build quality and stylish good looks. Precision and detail are delivered in spades but never at the expense of emotional involvement. Performance is enhanced by the dedicated POW1 power supply but it is more than acceptable with the standard supplied PSU. Buying the Frérot in its standard power configuration and saving up for the POW1 at a later date would bring a nice little upgrade and performance boost to look forward to.
As there was really nothing about this product that I didn’t like, it gets five hearts from me. If you are in the market for a stand-alone DAC at this price point, the Merason Frérot definitely should be on your audition shortlist.”
