| Hypex N core module I use the Acoustic Imaginery Atsah monos and also do not experience any high frequency issues or soundstaging issues. The Ncore 1200, imo, is extremely revealing, neutral and transparent and will take on the character of the source equipment, cabl... | |
| Wilson Audio Sasha Mk I I own a pair of Wilson Sasha 1. They are amazing speakers and excel with most genres of music; especially jazz, classical and rock. Like some have said, wilsons are not everyone's cup of tea so it would be best if you could audition it and hear it... | |

| Shiit yggdrasil I have the Sashas. I’ve not heard the MA1 so I can’t comment on that. I would urge you to find a way to audition a conditioned yiggy. A word of advice, if you are auditioning the yiggy, it has to be ’burned in’. Fresh out of the box, the yiggy wil... | |
| Shiit yggdrasil The Schiit Yggdrasil is the real deal. Period. No other DAC at this price point can compete. It can compete favourably with any DAC at any price point, depending on how revealing your system is; the yiggy will reveal minute details, dynamics and s... |
