Thinking about the many paths to go within my DCS stack, the Verdi/Purcell/Elgar/Verona seems to be a real CABLE-TESTING-MACHINE.
If digital cables are as good as discribed it must be possible to beat the DSD firewire path with matching high quality digital cables using 1 cable from Verdi to Purcell and then using 2 cables from Purcell to Elgar.
If the interconnects are as good, as reviewed this 24/192 path, with MIT MA/Stealth/SiltechG6+G7 etc. MUST beat the firewired DSD sound using the DCS standard 1394, cause the DSD signal is described as only slightly better than the 24/192 !
Seems to be logical for me, but i cannot test it cause at my Purcell and Elgar the firewire terminals are still missing.Would be astonished if i am the first, thinking about this.........
Kind regards
