What DAC are you using?
CAMBRIDGE AUDIO CXC V2 EXPERIENCE
JUST OPENED UP A NEW CAMBRIDGE CSC V2 A COUPLE DAYS AGO AND THOUGHT TO SHARE A FEW IMPRESSIONS.
1. THE UNIT CAME DOUBLE BOXED AND SHEATHED IN A CLOTH PROTECTIVE BAG. ABSOLUTE PRO PACKAGING.
2. THE TRANSPORT LOOKS BEAUTIFUL AND FEELS SOLIDLY BUILT. IT IS FULL SIZED, AND NOT LIKE THE SMALLER PRO-JECT OR CYRUS CD TRANSPORTS.
3. AFTER LETTING THE TRANSPORT WARM UP FOR A FULL DAY, I TRIED PLAYING A FEW CDS - WHAT STANDS OUT FOR ME IS THE BASS RESPONSE UNDER 60Hz BEING WELL FLESHED OUT AND THE SUSTAIN OF BASS NOTES ARE EASILY NOTICED. THE DETAILS ARE ALSO VERY CLEAR AND SOUND NATURAL, NOT ETCHED. THE UPPER MIDS AND HIGHS ARE EXTENDED AND HAVE A NICE SHEEN TO THEM. THE HIGHS COULD BE SOFTER, BUT THAT IS EXPECTED AFTER SOME BURN IN.
4. A CLEAR IMPROVEMENT OVER MY PREVIOUS TRANSPORT, IN TRANSPARENCY AND PACE AND A BIT OF A SHOCK TO HEAR SUCH A DIFFERENCE WHEN WE ARE ESSENTIUALLY TALKING 0 AND 1S. TOP AND BOTTOM END EXTENSION IS CLEARLY SUPERIOR WITH THE CAMBRIDGE.
WISH LIST - IN THE BEST SCENARIO, THE TRANSPORT WOULD HAVE A TOUCH OF WARMTH IN THE MIDS AND MORE AIR BETWEEN THE NOTES. THE BASS WOULD BE MORE VISCERAL AND A TINY BIT OF SPRKLE ON THE VERY TOP.
ALL IN, A NICE TRANSPORT FOR $700.

Mind blowing sound. I’m hearing subtleties of my number one tracks that I never heard. It resembles a shiny new encounter of the tracks I have paid attention to before for multiple times. I should make reference to that Magic 2 is the DAC I use with this vehicle, yet Magic 2 never sounded so great with some other source ( Album player, Flowing and so on.). Purchase this vehicle in the event that you like Compact discs and have great DAC. You will appreciate it! Tutuapp 9Apps Showbox |
