I pulled the trigger on a Denali V2 and a 2.25 meter Sigma XC and I really like the improvement! Courtesy of Legend Audio.

All of the audiophile drool pertains without going into too many details but I hear so much more coming from such a black background. Tonality, pace, and being able to hear so deep into the music makes for an even more musical presentation. Imaging and sound staging are improved greatly - giving more presence.

Puma Cat - it is exactly how you describe it - Fast, Crisp, but not all in your face. Love it when a plan comes together!

Jerry

Congratulations. I suspect the fun, drool and all, is just beginning.

Hi Jerry,
Really pleased that you are having the same experience that I did using the Denali and Sigma XC.

As Hans says, "Enjoy the music."
