Please let us know what you hear in terms of changes with the Melco DAC cable. I tried a Melco DAC cable between the Taiko switch and Taiko Extreme in my system, and there was no meaningful difference in the sound.
In my experience, Roon is more responsive to play titles, shows the resolution of the different files in a search, shows lyrics when available, and overall has a better interface, but I don't use it, I use only XDMS becaure everytime I compare, XDMS sounds much better than Roon in my system.
I started with the Totaldac Twelve, then Twelve mk2, then Twelve mk3, and now Sublime. I suggest that you buy the best that you can afford.
I have found the feet to be a worthwhile addition. Please see post #2.
Quite happy with my Totaldac Sublime DAC and two Sublime Drivers. Every few years Totaldac comes with an update to further improve the sound, so I send the unit to France and receive a better one when it is back.
Or perhaps the Conrad Johnson ART-88 is the best tube preamp that Emile could find. I wonder what would be rank in terms of best tube (or hibrid) preamp among: VAC Statement ($70K), Lamm L1.1 sig ($55.3K), Riviera Labs APL10 SE ($47K), Conrad Johnson ART-88 ($28K), Ypsilon PST100 mk2 SE, VTL...
Hi Stereophonic,
I am glad the Perlisten worked so well for you!
I would appreciate if you could describe in as much detail as possible how the sound changed using the Revopod feet vs the original feet. Thanks
Congratulations!
I purchased two Perlisten D215S and hopefully will receive them by the end of February.
Can you describe the sonic effect of the Revopods on your Perlisten? Thanks
Steve, thank you. I would like to go, but since I don't have a date yet, I can't be sure if I can. This is why I asked for Munich, which I already have tickets and hotel.
I have no clue about the impact of such percent changes. This is the reason I want to hear the two options directly to form my own opinion and decide what to do.
25% if compared to the Taiko Extreme.
If compared to Olympus XDMI its an estimated 9,09% improvement (300%/275% - 1):
"Olympus with XDMI mounted: 275%
Olympus with Olympus I/O with XDMI mounted: 300%"
However, I would like to hear it in order to decide if this 9,09% improvement is worth...
Looks like a lot of damping on top of the Totaldac Units and also the Oladra. In my experience, most of the time I prefer with no damping on top. However, I have never tried the Magico feet on top of Totaldac units for damping. Any end user here tried? How did they perform?
