Prima 24/192 How good does it really sound

I could not say it any better than Warrenh did. It does perform. Mine is about 2 years old and I have no complaints. I too listen to Jazz with a little R&B. I really believe this cdp was made for this kind of music because every single detail gets picked up. Get a better power cord and IC, sounds even better. Can't go wrong unless you want to spend a lot more$.

I demoed the prima and the granite audio tube cd players at the same time. At first the prima was hands down the winner but on about the 12th day of going back and forth the granite audio player broke out the bass just come on strong smooth and tight it was way ahead of the prima then the mids and highs also filled in so that in almost all of my music the granite player exceeded the prima. I play alot of new age, piano,guitar, and vocals like Eva Cassidy and Jennifer Warnes. If I were you I'd get both these on loan like I did so you will have no regrets. Granite Audio has a 30 day return policy and I found a prima dealer who gave me the same policy unfortunitly i like the granite better by far and returned the prima. Good Luck Hunting

So you liked the prima for the first 11 days then the granite exceeded the prima on the 12th day, was this because of the equipment used with the players or the type of music being demoed?
Thanks

The equipment was the same at all times A 505 B&K reciever and JmLabs utopia altos. And I listen to the same music on both players with exact same wires and every thing. Most times I would play a few tracks on a cd then play the same tracks on the other player. I'm no expert but I did what I could to make fair comparisons. I like my money to much not to do some research and experimentation.
