As I listened to the Recovery and enjoyed the fresh rich earthyness in the performances I found my mind struggling to identify just exactly what it was about the Recovery that endeared it to me. In a word......analog. To my ears that is what's happening. The music is being presented in such a way that it truly does sound like analog music. I can't think of any other way to explain why I seem to be enjoying my high-res digital music more than ever before with the Recovery in the USB signal path. Wyred 4 Sound could have easily called this device Analog Recovery. .
Ok fine. I'm going to order one. I already have great USB cables and a good power supply.
