Hi,
Nowadays, audio companies are launching more and more streamers. I am listening music from jazz to electro-industrial, contemporain to baroque, dark ambient to experimental, so really wide genres.
I would actually need digital inputs as well. After all, I want to connect wadia transport and Sony dat to it - Of course I can sacrifice this for quality because I also have an analog tube amplifier.
In addition, in Hungary, where I live, my hearing opportunities are limited.
So i listened in a Solution power amp driven paradigm Persona 9H speaker system ( i like other kind of sound - it was too dry, emotionless, sterile for me). On some music you might have heard a difference e.g. Dead can Dance Anastasia sacd, JAZZ is noticeably airier and has some intangible sense of difference. On classical music, the x1 sounded airier again. I would say - if i can put it that way - the difference is 10-15% (for me).
I was also looking for a used streamer. My current option is either a new X1, or a new P1, or a used (1,5 years old ) X1 at the same price as new P1.
What do you think? Which is the best option? Or do you have other suggested option?
Thank your answer in advance
