Freaking Fantastic!
Thanks, guys, for the very targeted, coherent conversation about Bill's set-up, and the very relative observations about his stereo. Since Bill copped that he is 78, I will tell that I am 76, and I understand and appreciate his measured approach to all this. I also really appreciate that Bill is in it for the Music, because otherwise, who cares? Not to mention any names, but the "well-known audio bloggers" just got smoked!

Best regards,
Paul S

Trinnov dacs
Was looking on line to see how Trinnov changed the adc/dacs inside the altitude and found this rather interesting video.  Bill, Romy, does any of this ring true?

I do not know.

Anthony, I have really nothing to say on this as I do not have this unit. The gentleman who made this video sound quite reasonable, and it is highly possible that everything that he says is accurate. Methodologically however, I feel that direct a/b comparing between two or more devices is very demonstrable but not necessary a very objective way to observe the differences. Again, no criticism what he is saying. 


Another interesting point. As much as I hate digital processing. I need to admit that when Bill's system sounded in his best. I did not detect issues that I would attribute to bad digital sound. Could it be better with different DACs? Only God knows as it will be completely different system. I do not know what version you have but since you going to be running only your surround channels from Ternov I do not think that you need to lose your sleep.
