So I pulled the trigger on the new Oppo UDP, and made a couple Hi-Res DVDs (Thriller and Gaucho) and WOW! My Speedball+big cap Crack really woke up, even through my budget cans (CrackHeadphones and DT 770 pro 250).
I have never really listened to anything but my Reduction through the Stereomour II. (Set-up CD for channel and phasing and Rega phono stage for SN comparison being the exceptions)
I couldn't resist and strung a 3 meter cable with m to m adapters across the to the 1 meter set plugged into the Oppo. (not optimal)
WOW x10!
Fed the bigger signal, the Stereomour really came to life. Huge dynamic swings, better resolution and detail. All of it.
So...
How much of this would be realized analog by going to the Eros and its +10dB of gain?
