What's another night or 20 of Ramen noodles and no heat for some hifi?? ;)I'd love to know what you think after you bring it home. I did an A/B with my vinyl rig tonight; Rega P3/Elys playing a new 45 of Relaxin' vs CEC/Delius playing the K2 Relaxin'... Not the best vinyl rig, by far, but very nice to listen to as it's sins are more of omission. It has always lacked a little on the high end compared to good CDPs, but usually 16/44 can come nowhere near the relaxed warm presentation of analog. But the CEC/Delius absolutely trounces it in every way, while keeping the relaxed analog sound.
I'm happy now.
I tend to think the Meridian would be a good combo for the dCS. From my experience, the dCS gear doesn't do well with edgy, bright transports (you know, the "hifi" sound). By all accounts the Meridians are smooth and maybe a shade dark, probably more along the lines of my CEC. I think it will be a good match...
Anyway, let us know how it turns out!
