Grimm MU1 vs Antipodes K40


I have the Antipodes K40.  I've never listened to the Grimm.  The Antipodes can be upgraded to the K50 if I wanted to.  Or, I can keep the Antipodes with my Lumin X1, and add a Grimm MU1 to go with my Weiss DAC 502.  Any thoughts from people who've used both servers?  Thanks.

I'm in a situation where I'm trying to decide if it's worth going from my Antipodes S40/ S60 combination to the Antipodes K41. I currently use the S40/S60 with a Antipodes K21. Two dealers said it isn't worth it, but Antipodes says it's a significant difference. My point is you will probably receive different recommendations, but only your ears can decide. Unfortunately, sometimes it's impossible to get a home audition.

A good  point, sometimes the highly desirable audition opportunity simply is not available. Forum feedback can be very informative, but also sometimes unavoidably  all over the map. We have to accept the good with the bad.

As long as the MU1 is your Roon Core and your network is configured to allow Roon ARC to communicate with your MU1 Roon Core.

 

Does anyone know if the Grimm MU1 can act remotely through Roon Arc?

Rather than read tea leaves on the internet, why not call the various Grimm dealers and ask for a home audition? That's how I heard it myself.

I've heard the Antipodes and bought the Grimm, but decide for yourself with your own ears.
