DCS Scarlatti

eagerly awaiting your comment, Murataltuev.

thanks in advance.

Bryan

does anyone listen only using Scarlatti transport+DAC (without the clock & the upsampler) comparing to emm Labs TSD1+DAC2?

Bryan

Murataltuev, thanks for your brief report.

On last Sat, I talked to a 2nd hand shop who did sell both Scarlatti & emm Labs TSD1/DAC2 before. The shop-owner swear that both users who bought the Scarlatti sold it after a short while and got back the emm Labs. He said he can find me a 2nd hand Scarlatti if I like but he warned me that knowing my taste he won't recommend me to do so.

Too bad I can't find a chance to have A/B test these two at the same time.

Chadeffect,

I once used Esoteric P03+D03+G0s and found it have high resolution but at the same time clinical so I just afraid dCs go the same path especially dCs is using the Esoteric drive too.

I like the emm Labs sound, I just not satisfy with its reliability.

Murataltuev,

Congrat to your new purchase.

Bryan

thanks Murataltuev for the assurance of warmness of Scarlatti, I may need to audition again in the dealer's shop. Nonetheless, I recall last time what I heard was consistent with your comment, just I'm not sure myself.

Yes, Clavil, SACD is a must for our classical music lover. But it also limit our choice of player very much.
