| Soulution 725 or Robert Koda Takumi k10? And yet another would replace the Naga HD with the Robert KodacTakumi 10. The eternal beauty of High End audio, choice. Charles | |
| Benchmark DAC Thoughts Depending on the listener involved and the system in question you can uncover flaws in any audio component. You cannot escape from the subjectivity of audio and listening to reproduced music. I wrote earlier in this thread that some find the Benc... | |
| Soulution 725 or Robert Koda Takumi k10? @renatocomes , I agree with @jond, if at all a possibility try to listen to them prior to purchase (I know, easier said than done, especially the Robert Koda). Given your additional comments I feel even more sure the Koda Takumi is your better ch... | |
| Benchmark DAC Thoughts @gnoworyta , You're welcome and best of luck with the Benchmark DAC. It may indeed be just what you are seeking. Charles | |
| Benchmark DAC Thoughts I have come across good/positive comments in regard to the Musetec 005 DAC. A strong competitor to consider in that price range is the Musician Aquarius DAC. I doubt that one could go wrong with either. Charles | |
| Benchmark DAC Thoughts @gnowortya, As with any audio component it is a matter of taste and how the component meshes with one's audio system (Synergy). Some listeners find these DACs ideal and the epitome of neutrality. Others who've heard/owned them find their sonic ... | |
| Soulution 725 or Robert Koda Takumi k10? I've heard a few Soulution based systems several times at audio shows and can't claim to know the sound of the 725 specifically, just a general feel of the brand's "house sound". From all I've read or heard about, the Robert Kodak Takumi is a ... | |
| Apologies to TMR Audio @joeyfed55 , 👍 Charles | |
| Preamp shootout: Linear tube audio, Modwright, etc. "I think a lot of us tried the DAC to amp experiment so do not feel alone. I used to discount the importance of the preamp and thought it was a place to save money. My current preamp costs as much if not a little more than my amplifie... | |
| Considering the Pro-ject Box CD RS2 Transport ? You might want to read this, first. @stuartk , The LPS I chose is the Fidelizer Nikola 2 (Formerly known as the Nickola Signature). I know a very reliable and trusted Audiogon member who has heard the LTA LPS and the Nickola 2 with the Pro-Ject RS2 Transport. He said the LTA is in... | |
| Considering the Pro-ject Box CD RS2 Transport ? You might want to read this, first. @stuartk , I haven’t heard the SimAudio 260CDT but I do know that it’s well regarded, you could easily do worse in terms of the sound quality. No doubt that it’s a very solid reference point for comparison with competing CD transports. Could very... | |
| Considering the Pro-ject Box CD RS2 Transport ? You might want to read this, first. Is the Urd available currently? | |
| Considering the Pro-ject Box CD RS2 Transport ? You might want to read this, first. @stuartk , Understood, we must adhere to our individual conscious. Good luck with whatever you decide to acquire. Charles | |
| Considering the Pro-ject Box CD RS2 Transport ? You might want to read this, first. @stuartk, Have you given consideration to getting the Jay's Audio CDT2 MK 3 ? It is highly praised and very well regarded. Also dimensions are traditional sized so ergonomics should be a non factor. Charles | |
| pro-ject cd box rs2 vs jays audio cd2 mk3 @ejlif , With the stock wall wart SMPS the RS2T still has a larger (More authoritative dynamics and bass weight/impact) and more open sound than my excellent P.S.Audio PWT which is 25 pounds and has an internal linear power supply. Yet via un... |
