Wadia 171 iTransport & Speakers


The Wadia 171 sounds dry, lifeless and unbearable with my Magnepans, Pass Labs and Bryston DAC, using Analysis Pus Digital Oval coaxial. With Harbeth C7s in this same system the Wadia sounds thoroughly listenable.

The Wadia also completely enjoyable through Polks in my other system.

Am I doing something wrong or are the Magnepan speakers revealing a poor sounding source? Thanks.

Could it be the TV in between the speakers is acting as a reflection baffle?
One way to see is remove the TV.
