"Although this is an intimate-sounding recording of only Waits’s voice and upright piano, the BDA-2 didn’t add an extra dose of presence by moving him in closer. Rather, it positioned Waits so that it was easy to imagine him sitting at the piano and performing in front of me, bringing me about as close to the man as I may ever get (he rarely tours)."

"From the very bottom to the tippy top, your music is served with astounding clarity and control...The BDP/BDA combo is also a micro detail champ, pulling out every subtle nuance contained in your tracks. Dynamics are also handled with a nice sense of slam when called for."
