wadia 830 vs 16i


hi

i currently have an 830 but a friend is looking to sell his 16i, in the process claiming 860 levels of performance. the question i have is...would moving from an 830 to a 16i be a step back, forward or sideways in terms of sound quality.

any opinions/observations greatly appreciated.

A couple of years ago I replaced an 830 with a 16i. There was no comparison (in my system)- the 16i was much more to my liking. What I particularly remember was a massive improvement in bass performance and "palpability".
