Then we switched to another system consisting of PS Audio Stream DAC, music server PC based. Krell xd 175/LST vs riviera aic 10/abyss.
And that was a duell at eye level. The bass on LST/X9000 was still somehow deeper and the abyss had a thin blanket over the highs but you had to hear very carefully to perceive the differences.
I was still very!! impressed to what the x9000 capable is, above all in bass but both systems were very listenable and engaging. But the magic thet the accupase produced was gone!
Andy es we still had dan clark stealth that we heard from abyss and accuphase e480 but what sould i say. If anyone want to buy stealth feel free to pm me.
It was an audiophile celebration and now i know riviera is not the very best amplifier for abyss on earth. But you should not forget the accupase pre/power combo is also very pricy and needs some space and current!
The pics are to come!
