Interesting conversation here. I am struggling deciding what to do, going for a dCS Rossini SACD player, DAC and clock and keep my Soulution 520 pre or go the extra mile for a Vivaldi CD/SACD Upsampling Transport, DAC and clock and sell my 520 pre. I have troubles to decide. I simply do not have the opportunity for a shoot-out. By the way, I am not asking you to make the decision for me, but maybe there is someone out there that has a Vivaldi directly to his amp. I can't extract that from this conversation.
By the way Aldenberry, it seems you like your Vivaldi DAC. Do you use a pre-amp? Thanks!
