Glad to hear that I could helpthis is what i was looking for! Thank you so much! Really! You helped me a lot Only one last thing: Talking about imaging and detail ( in other words, the ability to hear the most possible from a hi-res music file ) do you think that these dacs are more or less on par or, maybe, one is superior to the other?
I personally would go for the Sony in that case. The Ta scales a tiny bit better with higher quality files. I do not know why but if I trust my ears it is because of the soundstage which gives some elements more space to shine. But that is not a big jump from the RME. The biggest is really the personal taste.
Do you like the sound of your WM1A? I had it, too. The TA has a lot in comon soundwise (just everything better of course). The tonal balance is right between the 1A and the 1Z. So I guess you could like this sound more. But if you found the 1A somehow lacking (f.e. dynamics) maybe the RME is the better choice. On the other hand you could use the 1A as a transport with the beautiful sony dock to the ta and remote everything with the sony remote . Thats just the „SONY-THING“
