To answer your question, the Exogal sounds fantastic. When the units were at their prime they had a wonderful application for iPads and such devices by which you could operate the system. This was formerly considered a major asset integral to the system. The application is no longer available and you are presently stuck with a cheap plastic remote and a tiny window on the Comet that is difficult to read. So one spends nearly 7k for a system that has become an exercise in frustration.
Exogal Comet / Ion
These have been on my radar for a while, intriguing, a true power DAC. Does anyone own this combo or heard it in a proper demo or comparison? What are your thoughts on sound quality?
