I use ML 37/36s.Is the new ML 390s better than the 37/36s ? Has anyone compared the 390s to any combination of 31.5 / 31 with 30.5 / 30.6 /360s ? How does it compare ? (I use the Madrigal MBC 1 AES/EBU dig cable. ) Any opinions would be appreciated.
You might consider getting an ML 360 or 360S to replace your 36S. The 360-series uses newer topology and is reputedly better than the 36/36S. I have a 37/360 combo and think it sounds excellent. I previously had a Wadia 2000 DAC which was very nice but I like my current setup better.
The 31.5 transport will easily outperform the #37. The 360s DAC and either the 31.5 or the 37 outperformed the #39. I've not listened to a 390s, but I've a friend in the business who does and has compared all combos and ranks them this way: 31.5 and 30.6 DAC 31.5 and 360s DAC 37 and 360s 390s 39 Thought this might help!
