What's Up?


Audio system source change suggestions? I’m considering options from a Border Patrol Sei SPDIF DAC back to the CD transport. Currently have Audio Sensibility’s Statement SE Coaxial 1.5m cable and the NuPrime CDT-9 with LPS power supply. On the other end of the system, it is all Odyssey Audio (Candela preamp, Khartago modified to Kismet level monoblock amps, and Kismet floor standing speakers).

How far up the food chain might I have to go with a CD transport and SPDIF cable to take the sound to the next level – improved imaging, soundstage, and tonal balance?

Are you happy with your room's acoustics? I found that I've switched DAC's prior to adjusting the room and noticed bigger changes doing that than anything the DAC could have affected.

Not unusual on this forum to get a multitude of answers to questions never posed.

I've had my basic border patrol for several years now...seems to do the job for me. No reason to change it out, as it sounds analog and musical. Built like a tank to boot.
