Hi audio_eng,
I have a fantastic experience with the first one. Although I need to precise that the experience is even better if you add an SOtM sMS-200 Ultra and tx-USB Ultra, both connected to the Ref-10, in the chain.
As Antoine described a long time ago in this forum, what is very important is to have clean power-supply. I am using a Paul Hynes to power the 2 SOtM gears as well as the MC-3+ USB which I have transformed.
I highly recommend this transformation for the purpose of getting full transparency with the MC-3+ USB.
