Forgot I had multiple systems here. I actually need to update the info as I moved to Kentucky and have a new system in a nice upstairs room. I put down mass loaded vinyl on the floor before the new laminate. It worked pretty well.
Still have the Sashas, Bricasti M1, Pass XP12, Jena labs, DCCA and Verastarr power cables, and now a Luxman M800A amp. I was plugging the amp into the 20 amp circuit and the dac and pre into a BPT balanced unit.
About 3 weeks ago I received the Shunyata Sigma USB cable. It was transformational: black background, delicacy and refinement of the soundstage, and a very nice tone to everything. Very nice.
So when the USB cable kicked everything up significantly I saw the power as the weak spot. When I looked for Isotek reviews I came across comparisons to the Inakustik unit and became intrigued. Pretty much everything you folks have mentioned is true. I hooked up everything to the Inakustik to go all in.
Bass is cleaner. The clarity is amazing. Like adding another Sigma cable. I really like the real-ness of the instruments and voices. Almost scary. I think we all hope our systems can sound this good and we probably forget our speakers are capable of much more than we typically provide them. People knock Wilson speakers, and I've looked for alternatives recently, but the sound now is just phenomenal. Now I'm swinging back to what could be a weak link and that is the IC's.
Thanks again fellas!
