APL NWO2.5 ?


Though I'm not able to hear this player, I'm about to take the plunge......
Is it as good as some audiophiles claim ?

Steve-

Congrats on your new toy. I know you've been waiting a while for it and we'll be interested to hear your reaction as it breaks in. Looks like I will also be getting one in the not too distant future.

Just put a VD Genesis PC on my 3910 and it made a tremendous positive difference, even more so than I had expected, replacing an Epiphany X. Rick S. told me it is quite a bit better than my Revelation PC and he was right - its at another level. Very impressive in my system and definitely worth a try, IMHO.
Congrats 711. I see you are going to try Purist Dominus PC. You may want to try also its newest top-flight sibling--the Anniversary. It works extremely well with stock X-01 Limited. G.
Steve -

Congrats! I am certain it will make some beautiful music.

I will second Guido's comment on the Purist Anniversary Power cord on the X-01. I used the Anniversary PC on the X-01LE and found the cord to be a great match. FYI - they do take more burn in than the Dominus if I recall correctly.
Steve, you're most welcome! Enjoy it! :-)

The Denons, as well as many other high-end digital products, has a switching mode power supply inside, while the NWO and many others have linear power supply.

The reason why I am bringing this up is because there is a huge difference between what power cord and power conditioner/regenerator will be used together with digital audio component having switching mode or linear power supply. This said; what works best with Denon might not be best with NWO.

Regards,
Alex
Congrats 711 - you lucky dog! Regarding powercords, I am using a Harmonix Studio Master on my APL3910 which I really like. I have also heard good things about top of the line Kubala Sosna and Pranawire powercords.
