Tidal Contriva Diacera or Aerial 20T V2

Hi Argyro. Regarding preference in music. I am not sure about up the Tidal line, but in the Piano series, at least according Jorn, the type of music does make a difference. What they told me is the Piano Cera is a better speaker overall than the Piano Classic, but for the type of music I listen to, rock/pop mainly, the Piano Classic would be a better fit. They explained the Cera is more revealing and will show a recording is really bad, and of course a lot of rock/pop recordings are, but the Piano Classic will still make music out of less than stellar recordings.

Yes Linkster I will probably go for the normal contriva and later on i will upgrade when case I am "hit" from the known disease of upgraditis....LMAO

Kclone I understand that, thats normal, In case of Verity though the sound is just too soft and laid back for rock, metal, drums etc.

Can't wait to order them, I have a hard time sleeping at night when thinking of the Conriva's,,,I wonder what I am going to tell my girlfriend this time....LOL

Mike, you may pleasantly surprised with the performance of the standard Contriva. I for one am blown away as to how extraordinary my Piano Ceras are and can't imagine that the Diacera upgrade (at almost twice the price) would offer a level of improvement commensurate with the additional expense. There is no SE option offered for the Piano Cera or Piano Diacera.

I have heard the normal Contriva several times both in my country and at the Munich High end show last year and I AM blown away! :)

Which Better the IC / SC / PC Cables for Tidal Contriva
Diacera SE?
