Teajay I have been out of town and not had a chance to compare the separates which I've been blown away by, but not heard in my system or with the Duo Isolink. We are about to make a sudden 3000 mile move to North Carolina where my dedicated room will be a geat upgrade from my current small one, and I will then pick up with the process in a better setting. The 28' X 18' X 10' basement room looks out to a beautiful lake and forrest and can better house this fine equipment.
Heard the Ensemble Dirondo player?
I was just blown away by this cd player. I spent a lot of hours yesterday glued to my seat. I currently have an all Audio Note system, but had chosen the Bremen No.1 DAC to mate with my CDT-2 over the 3.1X. Until yesterday I didn't believe I could improve on my digital front end without spending a king's ransom to do so. Any body out there own a Dirondo, or had a similar experience? I'm still shocked by what I heard! I'll post a review to follow.
