Quote:Oh, and a final note to @octaviars, I would refer you to my comment in post #79 "This weekend I will commence step 1. Code name "operation listen to lots of music."
That is a good thing to be doing from time to time, just play music and dont bother so much with the technical stuff
I do recall when I used the sMS-200ultra with the original SMPS that I felt some tracks being perhaps a bit edgy, that have all gone with a couple of hundred hours on it and the SR4 powering it.
My old system consisting of Devialet 440Pro and Focal Sopra 2 was more prominent to show this edgy/harsh behavior with some albums (streaming with Roon/HQ player/AIR) but then there are so big diffrences between the tweeter/midrange of Focal and TAD how they sound.
Speakers:TAD CE-1. Amplifier: TAD M2500mk2. Digital: TAD DA1000-TX, Innuos Statement Next-gen, Innuos PhoenixNET.
Miscellaneous: Qobuz Studio, Ansuz Mainz 8 D2, Ansuz Darkz DTC, Tubulus Argentus ethernet cable, Tubulus Concentus USB cable, Tubulus Argentus V2 XLR cable, Tubulus Argentus V3 + V3 bass, iFi Nova powercables.
Second system
Qobuz Studio -> Devialet Silver Phantom, Devialet Tree
