The first digital "analog" player has been born

   Peter...

Stable sjit you made. Cannot provoke it in any way.

I have commented the sound of the XX so many times before ---- THE VERY BEST. How do you think it was to get rid of the Foobar after having the XX running for months and all over a sudden were forced to go back, while you were polishing off the last things in the 009? Pfew... 

The new XX have now being running the whole day. No way I can provoke it to do crazy things except sounding crazyly good.

I have until now not feed my nos-dac with the #3 etc. as that dac will be re-introduced as soon as I have my CrazyA's from Bert.
But my ears tells me that #1 44K1 is a hair ahead of #3 re. resolution and the #3 is slightly ahead re. relaxation or smoothness.
As it is now I prefer the #1, but that can soon change when a Crazy amp enters my world.

Never the less I shall express my deepest thankfulness for the devotion and hard work you granted the job and the result is now available to all of us +++ .

Muchu muchu    Peter.


I count now one more genuin contributor to the audio world. And there is a lot of value in the Michelin stars I award, and further those awards comes extremely rarely. I think I gave 5 persons such an award over the last 35 years.

Thank you for your ever so nice words Gerner ! But I know you also just mean it.

Might Bert have one CrazyA/CrazyV ready before the other (or has to put priorities), I gift you mine ... so you can make use of your TwinDAC ASAP.

But my ears tells me that #1 44K1 is a hair ahead of #3 re. resolution and the #3 is slightly ahead re. relaxation or smoothness.

While #3 really has more resolution. But as you know my point of view : how to talk about resolution while that is removed by the os-DAC.

For the Michelin Stars ... that's really too much honor. You did not experience my cooking (nor did I experience yours hehe).
I can only hope this will really do something to the audio world ... and remember, I need your ears your golden ears too to confirm things (and of all those who want to judge).

Of course you make me wonder who those other Michelin persons are ...

You bet Peter I mean it.

Peter you are such good hearted pal. But Berdy have promissed me an amp as per soonest. So likely I shall be the priest and marry the two and let #3 do the magic. We shall see.

But my ears tells me that #1 44K1 is a hair ahead of #3 re. resolution and the #3 is slightly ahead re. relaxation or smoothness.

While #3 really has more resolution. But as you know my point of view : how to talk about resolution while that is removed by the os-DAC.

Of course I am rediculous to test #3 through my OS-DAC. There *is* a difference as I said....but my DAC in use oversamples so much that I cannot imaginge how it would sound if it didn't. (Oh..maybe I can..anyhow).

For the Michelin Stars ... that's really too much honor. You did not experience my cooking (nor did I experience yours hehe).

That will be balanced. Promis you. The tires I gave you, you simply have to swallow.  They are yours. Eventhough I know that 3 tires are the top, I had to add a 4th tire for your work. But only because I know you would not know what to do with 3. Right? 

I can only hope this will really do something to the audio world ... and remember, I need your ears your golden ears too to confirm things (and of all those who want to judge).

 

Of course you make me wonder who those other Michelin persons are ...

No secrets:

• Steen Duelund, Lars Mikkelsen, Michael Nielsen, Bert Doppenberg, Peter Stordiau

No ranking here. All gave their innermost to improve audio the way it is recogniceable. Not just tweaks and hypnosis.
