I just got my Vivaldi Upsampler back from it's upgrade yesterday. It's NICE.
Listening to Gerry Mulligan, "What is there to say" Redbook, F5 off the VUP 2xDSD output to the DAC at DSD F5 right now.
It really remarkable how its presenting the cymbals and the brushes. More resolution, more realistic images (more 3d like and instruments separated better), seemingly able to feel the movement of the brush strokes in a way not ever noticed before (I have this in Redbook and 45 RPM vinyl). But at the same time warm, relaxed, it's less aggressive but more energy. Nice trick dCS has pulled off...
It's impressive dCS provides these upgrades to Vivaldi owners. Talk about building brand/dealer loyalty !!!
