Totaldac d1-direct (...to amp!)

[Bruno]

Salut,
en parlant MAGICO et TOTALDAC, un des tout premiers retours sur le forum Whatsbest... du Twelve MKII, ici en upgrade de la V1, retour d'un possesseur des S7, des bricoles alimentées notamment par des blocs Monos KONDO KAGURA ou des SOULUTION 701 ! et le "reste", semble-t-il au diapason.

"I just got back my TotalDac d1-12 upgraded to the MkII this Friday. It is connected to an SGM EVO with an AES-EBU output with all music stored on the SGM’s internal drives. 

Although the MkII has been on for only 48 hours, it has already produced, together with a pair of recently installed 512 Engineering/Tim Marutani 10kVa balanced transformers (one for sources and one for amps), the closest reproduction to real music in my room ever before, with the lowest noise floor, most transparent, yet naturally musical and relaxed presentation by not a small margin.

If you own the TotalDac mkI, I would urge you to consider upgrading to the MkII without question.

A good audiophile friend mentioned Vincent is very modest and would never produce an upgrade unless it was a substantive improvement. 

He is right on all counts. Congratulations Vincent!"

Vu d'ici, ça à l'air de le faire... vivement le prochain salon HF pour se faire une premiere idée de ce nouveau super bidule sur des Bibliothèques (?!!) alimentées par le tout nouveau Bloc HOLTON Class A  (superbe), tout cela dans les limites d'un salon mais bon, on va pas chipoter, hein.
