RE: So have you taken the plunge?

Posted by PAR on May 20, 2017 at 10:52:41:
Not yet as I am still in Munich with only a phone to communicate with. I am considering it but I am little cynical about hi-rez to start anyway . I have lived with some form of it since the turn of the century but feel that my real gains have come from just getting redbook to perform better (after all it forms most of my music collection).
I intend to buy and download a hi-rez album or two from Qobuz which wlll allow me to stream them without Sublime+ and then compare to the standard CD stream. That should make my mind up.
As for resources I have an 80Mb/s line and dedicated music computer running the Qobuz app so I hope it will not be an issue. Only a trial will reveal if I am right.
