Audio Logic 24MXL compared to Audio Logic 34MXL

I answered part of your question on the other Audio Logic thread; you should call Jerry, he will tell you the differences and will tell it to you straight too. My recollection from when I switched the chips in my Audio Logic Model 34 to the 24 bit chips used in the 2400 was I gained a little bit of resolution and lost a smaller bit of musicality; that may be the difference between the two units now, though I didn't have the transformer-coupled output stage in my DAC at the time so this observation may not be relevant. By the way, I would not consider your digital front end to be a weak link by any means; in fact, I really don't see one in your system. Just my biased view, of course. :^)

Thanks for the response Rcprince. Do you have Jerry's phone number? The number in my 24MXL owners manual is no longer correct. I looked at the specs from the new DAC and mine and see no real differences. I was hoping for at least a cap and resistor upgrade to premium componenets that may have been a worthwhile upgrade. It seems as if all he did was swap chips, it should be offered as an upgrade to current owners of the 24MXL. I did see the other thread after I started this one. Bart

I put the number in that thread. 203-222-2274. Let us know what he tells you.
