Comparison: Pro iDSD/Ref-10/JS-2 with Denafrips Terminator
Before I get into sonic impressions, let’s take a stab at what we’re comparing here from a price perspective. Since the JS-2 is a 2-rail PSU, we’ll value one rail at half MSRP, or $500. And let’s assume you’re using 2 outputs total of the Ref-10, so one output is $1800. By this accounting, the Pro iDSD/Ref-10/JS-2 combo is valued at $4800. That’s pretty close to the Terminator’s MSRP of $4450. So how do these configurations compare?
getz-gilberto.jpgOn Só danço samba from the iconic Getz/Gilberto album (Verve DSD64), these 2 DAC configurations exhibited different strengths. The Terminator impressed with its now-familiar textural density, deep bass, and muscular dynamics. The Pro iDSD/Ref-10/JS-2 combo was no slouch either. It conveyed more ambience, more fine detail in the instruments, especially the percussion, and better separation and imaging. To my ears, the Pro iDSD combo won the day, but this wasn’t a slam dunk by any measure.
Again - it’s worth repeating that this isn’t a $2500 DAC trouncing a DAC twice its price. We all like giant killers, but this wasn’t it. This was two similarly priced DAC configurations exhibiting different strengths
