Quote:Sound staging seems to be more accurate, more enveloping and extended in all three dimensions with better separation, yet without losing cohesion.
Low level detail retrieval has improved (maybe this has to do with the fact that distortion/jitter is lowered) making everything sound more natural/cleaner/easier to follow also enhancing microdynamics and reproduction of vibrato and subtle timbre variations like in piano and guitars.
Bass is also more powerful/direct and notes develop more fully, from beginning to end.
And this is what I wrote about the direct connection of a SMS-200 to my music server, January 14th:
