Linn Ikemi vs Resolution Audio Opus 21

Having home demoed thr Ikemi and the Ayre CX-7-the CX-7 won easily-better especially on rock etc.

I agree the Ikemi does not excel on Rock, but if your tastes in music include acoustic, vocals and jazz, it's a hard player to beat. I never heard the Opus so I can't offer an opinion there.

wow this is what makes the audio world go round, I have had a few hi end players at home, including the ayre, which I liked,but preferred my Ikemi, thought the ayre sounded very similar to the consonance 2.2 tube player,never heard the opus though. I think the Ikemi sounds quite good on rock.
