Cost $995 to replace input board with new one with USB. Seems rich?
Wadia service, very nice folks, said this "Our USB implementation does do jitter reduction almost to the point of the data being Clocklinked. We did more than just add a USB input on the back, we are requesting the data with our DAC’s clock."
So, get a good spdif output board on computer and send to Wadia or retrofit?
Any thoughts?
digital !
no product / manufacturer in high-end has linked the word digital to it´s core business as wadia has.
-and no digital consumer manufacturer has held so much deserved credit for bringing the CD medium into serious highend. I´ve had tremendous joy of ownership previously.
bravo wadia !
beautiful packaging and convincing technology !
-but as everything digital, the pace of new developments and new routes to even more striking concepts, the good old wadia is struggling with getting the frontiers right :
is their iPod docking station their way forward ?
where is the their "one-in-box" reference HD player ?
why is wadia missing out on all this new stuff ?
I guess : they´re too ...eh, conservative (or maybe their target consumer are) to lead real new HD technology forward.
it´s just very cumbersome to be new and classic in the digital world at the same time....
....in that sense of observation, I feel it quite hard to say "upgrade" with wadia !
do get a new approach instead !
Sounds like an asynchronous USB implementation.
Perhaps Gordon licensed his firmware. ;)
Gang,
No I did not sell Wadia my Streamlength Code. But remember there are many ways to implement USB. They can use bulk mode like Firewire products do then write Audio Drivers for them and be async.
Who knows... but it's not my stuff.
Thanks
Gordon
