@umrkretread I’ve had the Sparkler for a year and a half. No complaints, well made, yes, hand made stainless case, small, uses Philips TDA1543 D/A and discrete analog path (=no opamp ICs). Don’t know whose CD transport is used but whatever is in there works well. Sound quality is very good, warm and smooth. Machine has basic functions which the remote mimics. Easy to read display. Distributor, Victor is great guy and easy to work with. When I bought the S505, they were being made to order and sent directly from Japan. |
