Using a Chord M-Scaler with the Expert Pro 220

Selected the third selection from the M-Scaler,  which provides the 220 Pro with a 176.4KHz or 192KHz input signal.  Makes a significant improvement with 220 Pro playback.  Every aspect of playback is simply better.  There is a noticeable difference with clarity,  soundstage,  you name any aspect of playback, it's improved. 

It's really noticeable when switching to streaming inputs,  where the M-Scaler is not in the chain.   From a sonic quality perspective,  sound is better from the computer source via USB to the M-Scaler vice direct streaming to the 220 Pro.  

If you happen to have a M-Scaler for your headphone setup, definitely look into using it with the Expert or Expert Pro.  You will be pleasantly surprised.

Yes.  It did provide a small amount of improvement.   Wound up swapping out the SCM19 for a pair of Dynaudio Focus 360s.  The SAM helps out the 360s quite a bit.
