Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

"I'll check it out tonight." - the findings

Well, it did it just like I predicted! Man, can I call them, or what? :-)

Yes, I was able to dial in the pace, rhythm, and timing, versus the excessive shout from the Lowthers by setting up various TVC turns ratios, and being fed by a 27-based linestage.

And yes, it also goes to show that the 27-based linestage is not as transparent and guiltless as I would have hoped. A lot was lost through this linestage, more than I had anticipated. Loss of detail, depth, and magic. Twas a disappoinment, really. The ultimate answer might appear to be a better linestage, something I'm not sure that will really be transparent enough to make me happy in this situation here. I think the TVC is pretty transparent, even more so in some respects than anything active I've heard.

And, so, I think I've found the winning formula for best sound from CD in my home. CD -> TVC -> 45 SET amp -> horn speakers, from the CD's RCA output and in "Measure" mode. Lovely sound. I dig it.

But it goes away for a few days as I am painting the living room and the stereo is now being torn down.
