Earlier this year I went from a Rossini Player + Clock to a Linn Klimax DSM. I believe the Rossini may be more neutral (which has long been my stated preference), but the Linn won me over with emotional connection. I was literally brought to tears with it. That’s what sold me.
Thanks for sharing your experience. I always take note when I see these occurences. Whether tears or frisson are observed, as is more commonly found, or if both are encountered concurrently which is rare.
I theorize it is partly due to time domain and very individualized but still on the search for more information.
