SHM SACD's need to be burned in Maybe you changed a setting in the esoteric. The poor sound you described is what esoteric's sound like when the multiple channel is selected in the menu. | |
Logitech Squeezebox Touch DAC: How Good? I had great results with a Benchmark DAC (upgraded the fuse) and had it on black diamong cones (#4). It served me well for two years or so until I upgraded to a Berkeley Dac. The Benchmark was wonderful. Nice soundstage, very good reslution, squee... | |
Logitech Squeezebox Touch DAC: How Good? The Touch is great out of the box and can rival the best servers with some additional gear (power supply, cables, a great dac). I love mine. It ain't vinyl, but very, very excellent. | |

New dCS Puccini 1,21 version Thanks | |
