Niiice! I guess that confirms my suspicion that the Gustard X12 is superior to the D200~ Gonna save up for that X20 and use the D200 as my bedside unit lol.
Also to note: there is a significant (read: Day&Night) difference when sourcing from my macbook pro vs from an iphone or ipad via the CCK. I discovered this when i was debating on whether or not to sell the wyrd. When connected to my iDevices, the wyrd + U12 >> D200 didnt make much audible difference as far as i could tell, so i was about to put it up for sale, but then when i switched back to my macbook the sound quality dropped significantly (soundstage got much smaller, loss of details, muddying imaging, weaker bass). Plugging the wyrd back in fixed some of it but is still not up to par with connecting to the iDevice.
I'm thinking that in the future i may pick up a REGEN unit, but then again i could probably just listen to all of my stuff from iphone anyway (90% of the stuff i listen to is from Tidal or spotify or itunes), so maybe i won't really need it~
