Thanks...helpful. I noticed when I trialed the Entreq Atlantis cables (vs the regular Apollo grounding cables) that deep house syncopated rhythms became extremely intense, and you could REALLY appreciate the DJs had dropped the track back EXACTLY half a beat to create this DEEP, PULSATING SYNCOPATION. Way cool.
With regular Apollo cables, you just heard a series of staccato beats with an alternating rhythm. Amazing what these grounding cables can do.
Does that seem familiar to you when you try Thor's? Or is it more about clarity, tonality, naturalness? Thanks again.
Can you comment about the difference between the regular grounding cable and the Thor grounding cable? What is the difference when you replace 1 regular cable with Thor...or add 1 Thor? Thanks!! Most curious about this...
Thanks! Enjoy! i have read great things about it...in fact, i have spoken extensively with one person who's very experienced, and felt of all the uber, hi-res DACs he heard...his 2 favorites were the Ypsilon NOS DAC and the Zanden NOS DAC.
Thanks for that...can you describe the differences in sound on Redbook? Just curious...since you are a dealer, i imagine it is awkward for you to pick a favorite on a forum. I respect that.
But any 'listening notes' you could share on BMC and Ypsilon DACs would be much appreciated!
REgarding DAC...could you discuss the differences between the BMC DAC which you use and the Ypsilon NOS DAC which apparently is also excellent. Thanks for any guidance!
