Dream System: Magico + Coincident + Wavelength ?

No vinyl front end.

Epic fail!

Shakey

"Epic fail" I disagree with that conclusion, Essrand can have a
fabulous sounding system with a well conceived digital source. Analog
front ends can sound great or not so great. Digital is no different, it's
implementation.
Who says he can't have both sources? I think Essrand is building a top
quality natural sounding system given his choices so far.

I had a question posted earlier about getting a Coincident Phono to start building a top flight vinyl frontend.
But frankly I do not have the time/experience/budget for it right now.
I also listen to a lot of music that are hard to get on Vinyl.
I have a clearaudio concept with MM that should do for now.

I will get back to Vinyl once I have enough records and experience to justify the expense.

Thanks a lot BRF, your post really help because I was wondering if Parsifal Encore would be as good as the latest Ovation. Since there is an Encoder on Agon for a good price now. Guess I should prefer the Ovation.

If you are going with Coincicent go wth his speakers too, better than the Magicos.

I think MAGICO is much better!!
