I can answer my question.
I got to audition a DC-37 yesterday and compare it to my DP-77
It was no contest
A guitar on the DP-77 sounded like something really cheap and nasty, on the DC-37 it was a beautiful Guild
Air and space was missing on the DP-77 which the DC-37 had in abundance.
Cymbals sounded like cymbals
Instruments could be heard in their own space
You could hear the room the recording was made in
I won't go on any more but the DC-37 sounded great!!!
I can't wait for it to be ordered and delivered. I'll find out next week how long the wait will be.
I don't own a DO2-HS1 card for my DP-77 so I'm a bit stuck getting the DC-37 to play DSD layers of SACDs
I could use my Oppo BD player and use a HDMI de-embedder connected to the DC-37 but I think I'd rather use the HS-Link.
Would the HS-Link allow me to play the DSD layer?
Where can I get one of these DO2-HS1 cards?
Thanks,
Terry
