555PS Back!

Posted by: GraemeH on 24 June 2016

After a sucessful run of work a deal came up on a used 555PS which was too good to resist.  It's back on the NDAC and, oh my! Totally transformational.

The scale has expanded hugely and, combined with far more natural 'real' timbres and detail the experience is totally immersive. I feel like I'm bathing in the bass on 'Anthem of the Sun'!

Loving it! Really shows what the recent firmware update can do.

Next Wednesday is the day. Then it's living up to my promise of no more toys until next year. I'll just try to blank that SL  loom from my mind until then I promise to be good, honest.

I made the same promisses to myself... No use...

Yep another +1 for the 555PS on the NDAC. When I ran my NDAC I really felt it was truly transformed with the 555PS and I have only found a few contenders since. Technically you can see why the two PSUs (inbuilt and external) really help the NDAC performance. Also perhaps of note I preferred standard Naim lead on the internal digital supply and a PowerLine on the connected 555PS for the DAC/analogue stages.
