No problem, I am terrible at all this audio vocabulary too. But still I believe a direct comparison of two devices is possible leaving out most of the subjective terms like "better" and "worse". I could understand if someone tells me that the bass/mids/heights of the Rega DAC are more pronounced/recessed (or not) in COMPARISON to the Touch. Or if the Rega DAC reproduces more details (or not, though I would be very surprised if someone would tell me so ;-) ). To give you some example of what I think of the Touch sound in my system: Bass is well pronounced, but lower mids are a little too weak. That means I would not like to add more bass, but the lower mids, especially male voices need more presences or power. The heights would need some taming. They are too present. And of course everything could be better ;-) To put all this into a perspective: I read quite often that the Rega DAC has a strong bass (what I do not really want). But I do not know what they are comparing it too. Does the Touch have a strong bass too? I do not know besides reading a lot about it and owning one. So, I would very much appreciate if you could give me at least some details of what you think about the differences of the two in your system.
BTW, I am not at all familiar with the Rega sound. Many thanks for any input and happy listening Frank -- frank_from_hh ------------------------------------------------------------------------ frank_from_hh's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=25866 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84783 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
