I also found that while the combo of DAC-1 and Sonus Faber made great recordings alive, the combo doesn't hide crappy recordings and bad engineering. Perhaps the worst case was buying CSN&Y's Four Way Street, which I fondly remember from ancient times. Its great music but unlistenable, they sing out of tune, off beat, the recording distorts and is over driven, bletch Pat _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
