Avatar playstation 1 cd player

Obviously that will depend on how good your preamp is but I will tell you right now, it is going tom have to be ridiculously good to beat that passive pot they used. To give you an idea, I would say something like a Joule Electra/ Pass Labs ... Would simply get in the way. Just use a Jensen s.e. To XLR conversion transformer and you'll be set.

Hello Audiofun, you said it sounded good when it is connected direct to the amp, but since my amp is only xlr, I will not be able to do this, how does it sound with a preamp?

Hmm. I did not double post. I think Agon still has some coding issues for QA :)

It is the Dynastation Dynavox formerly distributed by Avatar Acoustics. Their was a mkI, II and III. The unit which I formerly owned and purchased new was between 6 to 7k depending on the Euro at the time. The 3 was USD 12k.

I have ownd the Meitner Bidat about 4 times :), the MSB PowerDac, Metrum Octave and a slew of other very highbend digitalmpieces. I've been privy to ML 30.6/31.5, top Esoteric gear and I'll tell you this... The dynastation 2 is one of if not the FINEST one box cd players on this planet! That thing makes music. The Ayon cd5s that I had for about 4 weeks is good, very good but not as beautiful sounding as the dynastation. See the thing about the dynastation is it sounds incredible with just it's built in volume pot I mean really really really fantastic. The CD5s was good with it's built in Pre, but it took my Music First Audio Reference and my $16.5k Halcyonics Silencer to really make the CD5s sing.

The AMR CD77 is up there with the Dynastaion. I ONLY got rid of it because I moved to a Mac based server model and got rid of all my shiny discs.

I'm here to tell you from experience, you could spend 40k on a cd player or Dac and not beat that unit.

I miss it sometimes, but the sound I'm getting with my AMR DP777/Music First Audio Baby Ref combo is world class. Oh, I recently upgraded the output caps on my AMR to Deulend VSF Black Cast caps.... Very nice!

If you have a chance to get the Dynavox 2 or 3 you will not regret it :)

My pleasure. If you get please post your impressions :)

Wow, thanks, I just may have to get this thing then
