Audiogon customer review excerpts

“A cleaner sound-instruments (especially percussion/cymbals) are better defined as their own individual sound thus far; this is what most impresses me!”

Follow-Up: Absolutely, all instruments were more clearly defined as the individual instruments that they are. Being a (crappy) drummer, my ears really tune into the percussion happenings. Hearing each drum, cymbal, chime, etc. stand out individually, really made the experience even more convincing as the “real deal.” I absolutely loved this!!!
“PRAT” Good ‘ole pace, rhythm & timing. The recordings just sounded as though the band was playing “tighter”, better performance, more of that real “live” magic, MORE MUSICAL & REAL!

“Bass is more refined and defined.” ... The sound was bigger, fuller and richer. Because each instrument had a clearer individual definition, imaging was improved, as well.

"The “cleaner” presentation revealed more subtle nuances. An example of this was how I could now detect subtle changes in how tightly hi-hat cymbals were being compressed by the drummer’s foot pedal, very cool!"
