I have always listened to my TP with XLR. I could never understand those that said the TP was a bit hard and or bright on the top end.
I especially couldn't understand why anyone would prefer the Bolder mod .The Bolder was no smoother in the top but it was less resolving and it was veiled sounding. Recently I tried the TP with RCA's . Both the RCA and the XLR are XLO signature. With the RCA the top end is slightly hard sounding, it is subtle but easy to hear. It is still good but not as good as the XLR. The 2 were level matched and a friend switched for me. The switching on my pre is inaudible, no click, no silence. I always prefered one and that was the XLR. After doing this 5 times I said enough, it was enough to convince me. However I would never claim this was a scientific test............just good enough for me. My pre has only XLR input so I used Rowlands own adaptor input for the RCA. So the dif could be the adaptor .........or not......... Has anyone ese done this comparison? Would someone else like to try it and comment on this thread? I am curious if anyone else has this result.
