Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD

Matt, thanks for doing this.  I have heard the HRS systems in so many places and they are amazing.  I don't think it would be MORE of everything or overkill staying within the system. If it was, then that would lose the point of what their engineers are trying to achieve.  Same with Symposium.  If it was all of their gear, then would there be TOO much detail etc....?  No, I doubt that would be teh case.  I think there becomes the point of diminishing returns, just like everything else. 

What I'd LOVE to see happen next (and I forgot to text you this), if for you to get Sam to bring two of his active isolation platforms his imports from Germany I believe, that are used for special microscopes.  As you know they are out of this world expensive, but I don't think you need a special rack for them.  To me, that is the next logical step in your journey to isolation 101.

@mattnshilp   Thanks for sharing your findings. Very informative and good to know your specific results/outcomes.

I just spoke with the guys at Symposium after reporting to them my findings. He said he was not surprised. He designed his equipment to be ultimately neutral top to bottom, and I can absolutely attest to this. It is REALLY good stuff!!! I’m going to listen again Wednesday. I need another session to confirm and reinforce my findings. Then I need to decide which one gets me more lost in the music and gets my toes tapping.

Hey I may have arranged for the top level Tidal DAC to grace my room. That should be fun!!!

Matt

I hate to go off topic so to speak, but did you ever have a chance to listen to the Mojo DAC? Or did I miss your impressions? Thanks!

I haven't seen any further mention of the Mojo DAC after it was received and reportedly powered up several weeks ago, also curious about it's performance relative to Matt's other contenders. Any update? TIA
