Thanks for your answer, it helps to back the right horse.The streamer is not the last word on SQ imo. As you know ive tried the streamer from external clocked sotm switch and preferred i2s from SU-6, 5% improvement. You still have the SU-2? Get a used SU-6 and go over I2S. I spoke to Jos from Magna Hifi, he confirmed that without external clocking, between SU-6, SU-2 and DI20HE, the SU-6 is the winner. With external clocking DI20HE is better.
I dont recal if you have the Puritan PSM 156, if not get one and hook up your DAC and other gear and you get 10-20% improvement.
The Su 6 has always been a memory play so far as I have the Su 2.
It might be worth getting the Su 6 home and comparing the two.
Also via the optical Toslink connection.
I also saw a good Su 2 upgrade on Magnahifi with a Farad power supply and a few small mods internally on the Su 2.
The power strip looks crazy my wife probably wouldn't be able to handle it.
Only got her to agree to the Zmf Atrium.
Which I'm glad about, even though I'm paying for it.
For a start I got myself a standard Cat 6 cable which is shielded and made of 100% copper. Let's see if it changes things.
Since I don't know what kind of Cat X cable I have.
Yesterday, my Refine fuse arrived in a stronger 3.15a.
I will let it play in for a while and then compare it to the standard value that Gustard has installed.
I think with 3.15 the bass is subtly better and the midrange slightly sweeter.
But don't pin me down.
