Do all R2R DACs sand off the leading edge of notes?

After a month of reading I decided the Schiit Bifrost would be a good match in my system. I bought one and returned it. The main problem was a lack of attack and drive with dense high energy music. The secondary problems were too much bass on recordings with strong bass and sometimes dropping the Playback volume on instruments that were prominent in the original vinyls. Doing further research the Denifrips Pontus looks good but I saw some comments about the soft leading edge being the only negative. Is this lack of attack common to all r2r units? If not please offer your suggestions. |
