Update midsummer 2008
I upgraded my AQ Columbia 72V DBS to a Niagara 72V DBS.
i was shocked what happened, the sound was terible, harsh.
and i was not possible to listen to a little louder music.
same as i expirenced before with VD Hul the Jubilee Hybrid
BUT ..... after about a week (cd player has been on repeat all day for that week)everything changed. depth was getting better and better, harshness started to disappear. after 3 weeks the sound was perfect. the details, the with and depth of the soundstage, control of lower freqs. mid and high made me a very happy listener. replayed almost all my CD`s. only disavantage is dat i have to change all my (safety) copies to originals because now its so clear that a copy is not as good as a original cd, it misses a lot of soundstage and detail.
Now also upgrade the Audioquest Vulcano`s to 144V DBS, it took about 2 weeks for the DBS to fully kick in. but i can recomand it to everybody.
and the journey continues.
