    See? Who said no myths were 'busted'? The Omiga Audio 'tea room' myth has been 'busted'. It was, in fact, simply the kitchen all along. :)

    Trouble was that the direct feed from the Sonneteer was better than the DAC whatever digital interconnect was in place.

    I wouldn't disagree Paul (quite a fan of the Sonneteer), however It wasn't that big a difference, between them either. To be fair the entec isn't an expensive dac, but did a fair job given it's price. T.

    If you do this again I think it would be worth setting up a very good system in your conference room and using that for slightly more structured dems.

    It was fun sitting in the opium dem and hearing ICE style booms from the Quads across the way. They rather bust the 'pipe and slippers' myth at least....

    Having 'played hi-fi' with Tone on a few occasions now, I can add my view that his hearing is brilliant ...

















    ... It's his taste that's awful. :D :argue:
