Пока @ZAG-ушел уехал к Adele, разомнемся битвой Bricasti SE DAC VS HOLO!
Натуральное звучание с хорошей тональностью и чувством музыкальной легкости. Динамика, полновесный бас и ударное звучание, а также построение сцены и многомерность сравнимая с Bricasti SE. Это комплимент.
A good friend of mine received the Holo Spring DAC a few weeks ago and has accumulated just over 300 hours in his bedroom system. He invited me over today to hear it in his primary system. Which is comprised of computer-Bricasti SE DAC-Absolare Altus Line Stage-Krell FPB 600 mono blocks-Rockport Altair speakers, he uses Echole cable loom. Needless to say that he has a fabulous sounding home audio system.
We listened to several very familiar recordings all 16/44.1 with the Bricasti SE we then listened to the same music with the replacement Spring DAC level 3. Well I’ll say this, the Holo Spring DAC is very good sounding. Natural character with good tonality and sense of musical ease. Dynamics,bass weight and impact as well as sound stage presentation and perceived dimensions were near equal to the Bricasti, this is a compliment.
Where th Bricasti SE is superior is refinement, nuance and inner/micro details or information. Bass texture, vibraphone, piano and guitar harmonics, overtones and timbre are superb as they’re more completely fleshed out and distinct. The Holo does these sonic things very well to be perfectly clear. The Bricasti raises the bar higher yet. In no way or manner is the Holo embarrassed in direct comparison, not at all. You are made aware of differences between components when heard back to back.
When cost is factored into the mix you have to acknowledge that the Holo Spring DAC level 3 represents very substantial value. Without question this is an exceptionally good sounding DAC. Three points to clarify.
1 The Distributor strongly recommended the Audio Horizon Platinum fuse upgrade based on his personal experimentation. I’d trust him on this. We replaced the stock fuse with a Synergistic Research Black fuse and there was genuine improvement. Take that as you like.
2 The sound was also improved with the use of an Intona high speed USB isolator between computer and the DAC.
3 The Distributor is sending my friend a Singxer SU-1 USB digital converter which he insists is very beneficial. We’ll see if that is the case once it arrives.
Initial impression, This DAC is very well built, solid and reflects high quality workmanship. Best ofall It sounds like music if you know what I mean. It held its own in an exceptionally fine and highly resolving (yet superbly musical) audio system. It is a legitimate high end product.
Charles,
И я поддерживаю dmitre - пиши сразу. Смысл тура в драйве для всех, а не только в личном эксприенсе. А за то , чтобы OleguSA не отправлять я тоже тогда проголосую все равно, знаю, скажет мол, что тест за 4 дня - не тест, поэтому писать буду только в следующем году, на втором витке тура
Напишу завтра!
Дайте хоть денег свой ЦАП погонять, послушать на контрасте.
А так могу с уверенностью сказать, что Holo очень хороший приборчик. Не из серой массы рынка, это точно! (по сопоставимой стоимости).
