The sound has a sense of flow and space around the instruments, especially on well-recorded music. I played ‘She’s Already Made Up My Mind’ by Lyle Lovett on his Joshua Judges Ruth album [MCA], and the separation of those instruments, the clean extension (without excess brightness) of the percussion and angrily-strummed guitar, and the depth of that bass are excellent. The dynamic range of this track shows both how good the MS III can be. The design still uses a TAS1020B chip as USB receiver, with a Burr- Brown PCM1794 as DAC, but where the II used a single output chip, the newer model uses three chips. It’s the three-chip output stage that represents the big difference, and brings the performance of the III up. The AudioQuest Dragonfly is now the obvious rival. In fact, they target different people entirely; the MS III is a USB soundcard to connect your computer to an audio system, where the Dragonfly is a USB headphone DAC/amp with the potential for domestic audio use with the right cable, which is not supplied. The sound of both is different, too; the Dragonfly is forward and very ‘now’ sounding, where the MS III is more about refinement and unforced dynamics. Dragonfly lovers will find the MS III ‘laid-back’; MS III supporters will find the Dragonfly ‘frenetic’. Which one of those you find yourself in step with should define your next DAC purchase.
