Hey everyone, things have been quiet on this thread for a little while so I thought I'd share a nice little confirmation of the Mainline's awesomeness.
I read Tyll's article about the Philips Golden Ears challenge recently and thought I'd give it a go. Tyll reported needing to go to his "reference" gear for the later tests so I was interested to see how my setup (and my ears) would go. I can happily report that the Mainline was more than up to the task ad helped me (eventually) complete all of the challenges including some of the golden ears tests where the differences are as little as 1.2dB variations. I was using the Matrix X-Sabre DAC, Bottlehead Mainline, and Beyer T1s as my reference setup and the Mainline did a stellar job!
