Magnifique!!!
This DAC/Streamer amplifier is of excellent quality, made to the highest standards... Even the packaging is very well thought out, with care and intelligence. The choice of this type of device was dictated by a need for Ms to be able to use a simple HI-FI system. The application is easy to use & intuitive, even with QOBUZ.
After a few weeks of use, we're very satisfied with the sound quality, the soundstage is wide and deep, the bass and vocals are well reproduced, while being clear and without harshness in the treble.... the music is expressed in a beautiful way, without auditory fatigue. Rather surprising for a class D amplifier, Cambridge Audio has done an excellent job of getting very, very close to class A. The two 75W units are more than sufficient for my small living room, and when connected to Highland Audio Oran 4305 floor-standing speakers, they make an effective combination.
Bluetooth and Airplay pairing works very well with excellent quality, and I use RJ45 for ethernet rather than wifi because I prefer web radio (my box is not far away). The screen has a very nice resolution, I appreciate that it is not touch it would not be useful but also no fingerprint! I really like the ability to display vu metres, classy! The turntable preamplifies quite well on the RCA input, nothing prevents the addition of a better quality phono preamp for those who want to improve this point. The HDMI input didn't seem useful at first, but in the end it's great to have.
In short, this amp is a little marvel & we really enjoy listening to it, it's even addictive!
