Alesis masterlink arrived


Just thought I would post my findings on this recorder.
Though this may be a little early but with the little recording I have done so far have to admit there is no comparison between vinyl and red book cd's. As for the higher resolution it does get a little better.
My next move will be to try connecting the unit with balanced cables, this should make a difference.
Any advice is welcomed.
By the way with the higher resolution what players will support this format, it's 96/24. They call it cd24.
Thanks.

Yeah I sued UPS and won when they denied responsibility for damaging a CD player I paid insurance on. I came out smelling like a rose on the deal too.
I go record out of my Ayre K1x preamp via Oritek X-2 interconnects into a Wadia 17 AD converter then XLR digital via Yammamura Millenium digital cable to the digital in on the Masterlink. This is far and away better than simply going analog in on the Masterlink. I get recordings from vinyl that are superiour sounding to most any commercially bought CDs.
