On Wednesday a guest listener came over to see/hear the Coda #16 amplifier. He has heard every generation of this system as new pieces of gear come into it for reviewing of individual components.
He immediately noticed three changes/improvements in the system with the #16 in place. 1) The overall explosiveness/dynamics along with the extension and control of the bass frequencies were at a higher level. 2) The transparency and the ability to hear the smallest micro-details in the music was more apparent to his ears. 3) The size in all directions of the soundstage, the air between instruments, and the location of these players was a remarkable upgrade. He said, " the system already sounded great before this amplifier, but now the illusion of music is even better".
