Marantz SA-10 Vs Esoteric K-05Xs Started this thread almost 5.5 years ago. Wanted to at least mention that my search has ended after I replaced the Oppo UDP-205 player/DAC with the T+A DAC 200. I am very pleased and satisfied with the change. | |
Sony or Panasonic 4K Player vs. Magnetar or Reavon Universal Player From experience I can say that as a CD player, the Oppo 205 is average (6/10). But use it as a DAC and you will start wondering what high end DACs might bring to the table (8/10). It is that good. | |

ATC active vs. passive OP, Your thoughts on the larger ATCs are justified. I can still recollect the boogie factor on the large ATCs. They were playing Daft Punk’s Loose Yourself to Dance. It was late evening and I was tired. But still felt like dancing! Stayed back in... | |
VTL Pre tube roll…or suggestions on 12AU7s I am going to commit blasphemy. I have a NOS Mazdas that replaced Psvane ART series 12AU7s in my preamp. The Psvane ART had replaced Gold Lions. And I love how the Mazdas sounded so "natural" in my system. Used it for almost 1.8 years and they ha... | |

Marantz SA-10 Vs Esoteric K-05Xs I have dropped the idea of a disc player. I am looking forward to getting a T+A DAC 200 soon. I am currently using the Oppo UDP-205 purely in DAC mode since July 2020, feeding DSD 256 though Foobar. I have heard that the T+A performs on a complete... |
