The Rega is just being used as a transport and it definitely sounds better via the Dac V1 as you would expect. Not that the Rega’s internal DAC is not bad, it just isn’t on the same level.

I look forward to your impressions as I also have a D2 that I’ve used as a transport only (old amp) and as a transport / DAC for my Nait2.

They look very nice and are not so common in the forum. How do they sound in your system? Enjoy!
Thank you! I just finished installing them, so I have not done any serious listening yet. I will report back in my other thread about them once they are fully broken in.

After a speaker wax session I today worked on positioning. Man do these beauties paint huge wonderful pictures of music. If you never listened to Tannoy and point source speakers I recommend doing so.

Currently trying out 30 watts of Class A with a Sugden A21 SE into my Neat Ekstra’s.

Nice, that Sugden is supposed to be a gem and is on my ‘to hear’ list.

Not my system, but as described on another thread, I’ve just visited the Freddie Mercury exhibition so this is from his house!
Apparently this was a ‘pro’ system installed in the bar of his conservatory.

I’ve been impressed with the build quality and sound and it looks and feels even better in real life. I don’t like the domed small screws on the top and it does get hot but the rest is very nice.
It’s my first foray into Class A so just getting used to it, it does timber and texture very well and it has plenty of power/grip for 30 watts.
It was a bit boring with one of my valve dac’s but sounded nice and lively with the Dac V1 set to fixed output.
