A Confused streaming system - Mutec / SOtM Ultra

[baconbrain]

However, in this specific case I was intrigued because as I have reported in this thread, I have found the sMS-200Ultra to sound bright and a little thin versus both AIR and my old microRendu.  In fact, the words in SOtM's press release are almost exactly in line with what I think is wrong with the sMS-200Ultra and how I would hope a new model would be different.  Possibly wishful thinking that the Neo version will make me love the sMS-200Ultra, but I am intrigued enough to want to try it for myself.  Or to put it another way, I have never been happy with the sMS-200Ultra, in some respects it is a mighty fine performer, but the thing has been bugging me from the day I installed it, so to send it away for the Neo upgrade is basically a "nothing to lose" move for me.

Hi Confused,

Strangely enough it was the „brightness“ of the Ultra compared to the mR which actually compelled me to sell it. Looking back I also kind of miss the old mR / Mutec combination. Curious to hear your impressions once the Ultra is back ...
