I use both! If i'm listening to Qubuz, then it's on the network. I have to admit, the differences between my hi-res files via usb and network haven't been apparent to me yet but may be i need to do more listening- Acemcl

dCS Bartok
so finally got everything up and running and it's been about 4 weeks of listening at this time. My rig is Roon Nucleus-->DCS Bartok--->Viva Egoista--->Headphones Have to say, the sound is sublime. Really like the combination of Viva with the DCS, brings more low end grunt and a bit of warmth...- Acemcl

I have heard the Bartok paired with the HPA-4. You definitely get more low end grunt. Interestingly this was evident not only for the Abyss 1266 which is hard to drive but also in the case of my Focals Where this gets tricky is for the price of a Benchmark HPA-4 you can get a barely used Luxman...- Acemcl

I got the headphone version as i figured it would be easier to sell when and if i decide to upgrade to a Rossini. When i did some of my demos, my ranking in increasing order of preference was: Bartok Bartok + clock Rossini Rossini+clock Will def post impressions once I've run thru the burn-in...- Acemcl

My bartok has finally arrived at the dealer .... a mere 8 weeks after I placed the order. I should be able to get my hands on it by wednesday I think. This is by far the longest I have ever waited for a component but I’m hoping that this will be it ( at least for a while). In this time I’ve also...- Acemcl

Trafomatic Primavera Initial Impressions
A friend I trust had a chance to compare his wells audio Headtrip reference ( I think that’s the same as level II) with the primavera’s and for his music tastes, the primavera’s were better in every which way. Thank you for the hifi knights info, will check it out.- Acemcl

Trafomatic Primavera Initial Impressions
You hit it spot on, my budget will allow for the Primavera but i'm just looking for the right pairing regardless of price. The real issue is there's no way to demo the primavera as even Fred ( Prana distribution) doesn't have one in stock that i can go test. I listened to the Primavera amp (...- Acemcl

Trafomatic Primavera Initial Impressions
Does anyone have any experience pairing the Primavera with the DCS Bartok? I am building my end-game headphone setup and curious to know how DCS would pair with the Trafomatic. I have to admit i am all over the place with the amplifier pairing for the Bartok, i've also been looking at the...- Acemcl

Luxman P700u Headphone Amplifier Thread
the amp in the bartok is good, but the bartok definitely sounds better with an external headphone amp. I demoed the Bartok with the benchmark HPA-4 and the difference in the low end was tangible. I’m curious how much better bartok will sound with the P750. Don’t want to digress but for a top...- Acemcl

I demoed it over two diff listening sessions each of which were about 90 mins. I had three headphones ( utopia’s, empyrean and stellia) and I came away with the impression that adding the hpa4 definitely made a difference to the low end. Bass response seemed to be better. I’m now seriously...- Acemcl

Does anyone have any experience with the dcs bartok in black? does it scratch easily? I’m looking to get one and the black is available in 2 weeks and the silver in 8 weeks. I’m inclined towards the silver because i feel it will age better.- Acemcl
