Mytek Brooklyn Bridge
Florida Audio Expo 2019 show in Tampa, Florida.
Report By Steven R. Rochlin

  Mytek brought their new Brooklyn Bridge ($2995) to Florida Audio Expo 2019, which is basically identical to Brooklyn DAC+ in terms of audio circuits and performance. The addition of a built-in Network Streamer brings the unit to modern standards. This also means the AES/EBU digital input was replaced with an Ethernet network connector plus there's a Wi-Fi antenna and a USB port for external music hard drive.

You can use a tablet computer to stream Hi-Res Music or other streaming services, plus of course enjoy local files connected to Brooklyn Bridge USB port. Roon dopes require an additional Roon Core. Headphones, a rare sight here at the Florida Audio Expo, as Mytek's Brooklyn Bridge supports line out, has a phono analog preamplifier, plus high-end headphone amplifier.

Mytek's Brooklyn Bridge digital-to-analog converter handles up to 384k @ 32 bit PCM, native DSD up to DSD256, and DXD. Ethernet CAT5 is PCM up to 24-bit/192kHz and DSD64.

The headamp delivers 500mA, 6 Watts, with dual headphone jacks which are designed to drive even the toughest headphones.
