Audio Synthesis DAX Discrete vs.DCS Elgar+/Purcell

i too have a dax discrete, fed however by the asl converted transcend transport. i've compared this interface with both coaxial and aes links (using eichmanned valhalla and az mc2, respectively) and the dual st link beats both comfortably. the application of io-gel takes the asl link to an even higher level. as a longterm user of audio synth gear, the upgrade from the earlier dax decade was a natural progression and i did not audition the dcs gear. feel free to contact me directly if you wish.

Colesy, what is io-gel?

Hi Colesey, I too have an ASL'd Pioneer 757i and a Dax Discrete,. What is the Io-gel that you mention?
regards,
Gary.

It's a gel manufactured by Aural Sympbonics for use with AT&T glass-fibre links. A form of contact enhancer, if you will. See link:
