i currently am in the process of obtaining a bidat,so this new thread is very timely for me.i currently use a highly modified audio aero capitole mkII se and modified 47 labs progression dac.i plan to work with john wright to take the bidat dac to a level that will give a result that will give me most of the best of what these 2 dacs do well and hopefully with a minimum of the shortcomings of these 2 dac methods.to touch briefly on the priority strengths of first the 47 labs progression dac.i have had some of the most enjoyable involving musical experiences with this dac;it does such a good job with rhythem and transients,very quick and lively.it is very direct and communicative,however in some system setups and some recordings it sounds a little to raw and brutal.the audio aero is very smooth lush and detailed,it seems to get all the detail out in a musical way with out rawness and brutality.it is very intimate especially in the midrange.it is not as good at rhythem and transient quickness as the 47 labs,if it was i would probably not be motivated to venture a change.i think that the adaptive filter in the bidat could be a key to getting me the results i am looking for(a starting point anyway).could we try to begin to explore what is difference between bidats?what physical implementations(changes) in production(A) or in (B)subsequent upgrades and what results they produce.i think anyone looking to explore the bidat would be wise to learn about some of these things first.i will mention this to john wright in upcoming communication and relay back to this thread.but romy can you elaborate at all on what makes your bidat a good one?are there any bidats that could be considered bad?(everything being equal with regards to updates)Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site
