Which player for Accuphase c2900 and a75 original esoteric k01 or an Accuphase
I have the house sound of Accuphase C 2900 paired with a 75 amplifier, it is sweet, but somewhat rolled off at the extremes,, I would be very very appreciative if you guys that know more than me would comment on the benefits of adding the esoteric K0 1. original ,,or possibly the DP 720 or 750 I’m looking for a little bit more bass definition and do not want to get caught up too deep in the romance thanks in advance again for any help Barry

@audiopacer My Innuos Zen MK3 sounds beautiful and the Innous Sense app is pretty reliable (there were some hiccups now and then, but it's pretty good). It's a very good value for money IMO. Innuos Pulse is another good option, more precise but not quite as organic sounding. |
@donquichotte thx for the recommendation. Innuos makes very good equipment. I saw a lightly used Lumin U2 pop on USAM today for a reasonable price and picked that up. I have prior experience with Lumin streamers and never had issues so figured it was a decent play. I wasn’t planning on getting a more $$$ streamer so fast but the infernal ifi zen stream junk really had me worried that would be in the same boat with fidgety stuff in this price point. In the past I played around with raspberry pi modules, Volumio, sonore Rendu (more stable than pi) and just don’t want the DIY hassle and headaches that always seem to crop up. A few years ago I did have Innuos Zenith and used it as Roon core and standalone. It was a great machine too, I ultimately went with Lumin because it was good price and I’m very familiar with the UI, it’s compatible with JPLay, has an SFP port, just always works (super stable) , and has a super low noise USB port. Should be fine (hopefully!!) regards |
@bclower so two quick things: 1.I have to eat my words on streamer. The Lumin U2 is awesome with the DP-770. Night and day difference between the ifi Zen Stream 3. Both in SQ and function. 2. DP-770 break in was rough for me. There were a few days in a row that the system did not sound good and I began to worry. This ultimately resolved itself. To my utter surprise and relief the DP-770 in my specific system to my ears, has achieved the next level in SQ over and above the magnificent playback designs mpd-8 dream dac. I owned that dac for a year. I think it really comes down to a system synergy thing. The DP-770 is the perfect digital companion in an all Accuphase system. When I had a Moon 761 amp and 791 digital / preamp the MPD-8 was superior to the 791.
