Although the attached review is primarely about the Rockport Lyra loudspeakers, the reviewer listened to these transducers using the the Wadax Reference server and dac combo. With this combo he experienced (streamed) files as never before (“remarkable beautiful” in his words):

“If the mountain will not come to Muhammad, then Muhammad must go to the mountain”. In this case, the mountain is the Toronto home of Rockport Technologies’ authorized dealer Angie Lisi, where I spent some time with fabulous monoliths also known as the Rockport Technologies Lyra Loudspeaker ( $190

Before few weeks ago I received the Reference Server model and together with the reference DAC and Akasa optic cable is the best combo that I ever heared !
I posted my old atlantis server for sell

Beautiful! I have to ask: have you heard this system? Is this yours?
1. I note the Robert Koda K15EX/K160 monos...so naturally am always intrigued to learn about fellow owners. Plus I also see Zanden, so this is potentially an 'ear' that I have some common ground with.
2. What other digital did this owner have before the Wadax?
3. Also, are those Cessaro subs alongside the main Cessaros?
Thank you. Knowing the Robert Kodas & Zanden sounds, with 100db efficiency speakers plus independently powered dual-subs, that system has huge potential.
There is also Arcadia Dac by Wadax (I am a happy owner) which uses the same musiChip and has a "normal" price tag
the Arcadia is a legacy model. no longer built. i've read and heard it does sound very special.
i suspect that the Arcadia has the original musiC chip.
the Atlantic dac has the musiC 2 chip.
the Reference Dac has the Dual-differential musiC 3 128-bit-feed-forward error correction chip..
Thanks for the info Mike, I didn't know that Arcadia is a legacy model since it was introduced in 2018.
I moved to Arcadia (combined with Atlantis server) from MSB Diamond V dac.
The wadax has more detail, better transients and wider soundstage a better dac overall

interesting. i could be wrong about it being discontinued. tried to find anything showing it is still for sale; but could find nothing. and it's musiC chip could be the same as the Atlantis level, since it was introduced at a similar time.Thanks for the info Mike, I didn't know that Arcadia is a legacy model since it was introduced in 2018.

how long have you owned the Arcadia dac?

if it's still for sale it is likely a formidable dac choice in it's price range, and should be on people's radar.
the cut Javier is using is "Chant" off the "The Best Of Fourplay--2020".
and Quboz has a 96/24 version that is much better than the 16/44.
