DCS Puccini and/or Soulution 740 players? Anyone??
Mert, the 808.2 Sig Ref took my 24/96 Chesky DVD Audio recordings like a pro, just like that, and for sure that sounded MUCH better than CD. Sometimes I guess manufacturers specs don't reveal all, don't ask me why. DVDA is dead though as a format....

What happened to Alex P? Did he vanish from planet earth? 
The best speaker you ever heard?
Excellent point, after going to something like the CES its clear that you can't separate the speaker from other components unless you are probably the designer, or you are intimately familiar with all components and you are a room acoustic expert....

Ray Kimbers room really bowled me over, with the four TAD's and his Isomike recordings... 
DCS Puccini and/or Soulution 740 players? Anyone??
Mert, it sounds better with ALL well recorded 16/44.1 material ... much more analogue sounding. With 24/96 DVD-A Meridian even excels further. I was at CES and none of the rooms using DCS were among the best sounding IMHO, maybe that's a coinciden...

DCS Puccini and/or Soulution 740 players? Anyone??
Mert, this wasn't even a planned comparison. The dealer asked for it when I mentioned I had it in the car (the plan was to try it in my friends system). When we did try it against the Meridian and the DCS, it surprised all that listened ... but it...

I took my MPS-5 to a world-wide renowned dealer/sound engineer, been in the music/equipment biz 30+ years, someone who knows everyone on this planet in the biz. My friend was comparing the Meridian 808i with the Puccini and clock. The Meridian won...

Yes, what is the definition of value ...But "value for money" suggests a return on investment calculation. Maybe you can look at it this way. If hypothetically, as the originator of this thread suggested, a $10000 CDP would give you 100% musical e...

Thank you Shadorne for some much needed humor after the past week of posts to this thread ...Its clear to me, after listening to Mr Muralman's "collectors" disc Lavin that the man needs to get out his room and listen to some other systems and the ...
