The major improvement Came when i acquired the Aurender 200 streamer.
Sounds at least as good as a CD or most SACDs.
Test
I’ve played the Mercury Living Presence sampler “You are There” on all incarnations of my setup for many years. With each improvement of my rig it’s sounded better. Until now, finally it’s sounding the way it really should. It’s a great confirmation that I’m doing things right after many years of experimenting, with advice from this forum.
It's a nasty can of worms we open when we decide that our rigs need to sound like they are supposed to. I've had several recording engineers to my house over the years. They do not care! When I get goose bumps from the sound, I am happy. I'm getting close with my present system. Not quite there yet. I'll have to cue up the Mercury sampler. Congratulations from me as well rvpiano. |
@rvpiano. I understood what you meant after reading just your original post: it sounded the way YOU like it and that’s all that matters. We all perceive sound differently to a certain extent and even in our lifetime, there will be variations due to aging and mood. Happy for you. |
