Thank you guys. We are using a Transparent Reference Link 75ohm and a Nordost Silver Shadow for the Coax & SPDIF jacks.
Counterpoint DA-11 - Genesis Dig. Lens - DA-10 Dac
Just wondering if anyone has tried the combination of using a Counterpoint DA-11 transport and the DA-10 Dac, both partnered with a Genesis Digital Lens.
I've listened to several digital setups in the $5,000.00 to $25,000.00 range and could still hear some high frequency shrill when listening to opera or piano. I am not sure if I am simply imagining the relatively better -- I suppose more analog and natural -- sound quality coming out of the much more humble Counterpoint-Digital Lens setup. These are relatively older components without any upgrades, so I would tend to think today's superior technology in chips and dacs would far surpass the seemingly outdated technology.
Thank you for your responses and pardon if my inquiry is loaded with contradictions, misunderstandings, or misperceptions on digital technology, as my primary source of listening is vinyl.
