Issue 215 of TAS:
Peter Breuninger gives the PS Audio Perfectwave Transport, DAC, and “Bridge” his “Golden Ear Award” for 2011
"This combination may not equal a handful of
units that cost far, far more (like the Meinter
XDS1 or the Meridian 808 Signature), but it
comes so close that differences are as much
matters of taste as of the finest nuances of
sonic detail. The sound is extraordinarily live
and detailed, and capable of getting the best
bass response out of digital. The PS gear is
detailed without any without hardness or edge
that is not on the recording. A “must-hear”
unit if you are trying to scale the heights of
digital—particularly if you are not operating
on an unlimited budget. It is in the process
of becoming a full music server with its own
music-management system, and it can handle
even the highest sampling and frequency rates
with ease—making it one of the few buys with
full growth potential for the future. (Review
pending)"
