It arrived! 252/SCDR/300DR , what's next?
Posted by: TomSer on 22 March 2018
This evening I replaced my Supernait2/HiCapDR by a new NAC252/SuperCapDR/NAP300DR system.
What a change!
Out of the box, the combo sounded amazing comparing to its predecessor. I have more of everything. It’s hard to translate with words those differences. The instruments are more real, the performers are there. You can hear them, their breathing, and their hands on the instruments. Cellos attacks are precise and clear. Piano... Well it sounds much more like a real piano, especially the end of the notes.
What a surprise, I didn’t realise that my speakers were able to produce so much music!
I suppose that the sound will improve a bit during the coming weeks.
For the moment I use NACA5 and HiLine, but a pair of Super Lumina speaker cables and Super Lumina DIN-DIN interconnect are on their way. I didn’t order everything at the same time because I wanted the system to settle down (or burn in) before the cables changing.
So what’s next now? Swap the nDAC with a ND555 ?! ;-)

LP12... for me the only cool thing about vinyls are their jackets 
Even if I grew with them, CDs look ancient to me. I use the CD player only to share music with my father-in-law. Streaming is more of my taste
