Any better DAC then dCS Scarlatti?

Great system!
I can bring also LynxAES16 system to compare with USB and FireWire interface system. I have very special setup with separate power and optical PCI connection for card which outperforms any other source I've ever heard.
Quality of source is so much important to compare great DACs!!!

Dear Murataltuev,

I can bring also LynxAES16 system to compare with USB and FireWire interface system. I have very special setup with separate power and optical PCI connection for card which outperforms any other source I've ever heard.

Would you mind also bringing some of your most favorite CDs (the originals, not copies)? This way we can all hear the difference between computer audio and the NWO-4.0-SE VRDS transport. Also, we can learn how digital interfaces/cables compare to the direct transport/DAC connection inside the NWO player.

Quality of source is so much important to compare great DACs!!!

Totally agreed!

Best,

Sure, Alex.
Today is first day of Russian HighEnd Show in Akvarium Hotel.
We have GTE Audio here with YG Acoustics.
May be YG+room doesn't work well, but sound was far from my home system.
Next week I'll have GTE for audition in my home.
And comparision in Reiner's room with APL will be really interesting.
BTW, best room here is ContinuumCaliburn with Tidal electronics and speakers! Really impressive system! Digital is far from it:)

I've just compared GTE Audio and MSB latest DAC with my Scarlatti.
MSB is great DAC. But can't say that it is better then Scarlatti.
They are very different and I definately prefer Scarlatti.
But GTE is something just unbelievable!!!
It is absolutely another class!!! After hearing what you can have with GTE, the rest sounds like hifi. It is like all your redbook recording become highres. Or like you are hearing them on LP with zero background noise.
Totally transparent window to the music...like on live concert.
I expected some minor improvements, but got dramatic changes!
My congratulations to GTE team! They did something very unique!

Interesting that GTE was also very sensitive for power cable.
Tomorrow I'll install DAC modules on the rack and expect to get even better result (although can't imagine what can be better:))
