Early days, but how does it compare to the Durand Tosca - particularly in terms of transparency and overall balance.

@dover 24 hours in with the Primary Control FCL, it fair to say it has a leg up on the Tosca in terms of liquidity, textures and grain lessness. it’s very sexy. might be a touch more micro-dynamic and life like. the Tosca is similarly transparent and balanced.

at these levels we are talking about small differences, but also at these levels small differences equal big differences in musical terms.

the Tosca really has no weaknesses; but the FCL adds more realism and expressiveness. the FCL is doing things that no other arm can do. it might not be the counting angels on heads of pins champ, but maybe it’s the sexyness champ.

the FCL and Tosca are two different levels of refinement; as one might hope for with the FCL at twice the price.

Dear @mikelavigne  : "" the FCL is doing things that no other arm can do. ""

 

That's a serious statement, so I would like to ask: like what things?

 

Thank's in advance.

Are those things what you posted here or something else?
