I’m feeding the Aurender to the Esoteric for burn in and will take turns comparing Aurender -> Esoteric then Aurender -> DA2. Also have the digital out of the Esoteric connected to the DA2 so I can compare Redbook performance between the two DACs using the Esoteric as the transport for both. Only thing I can’t compare is SACD since I don’t have the required EMM Labs transport to do that but I have plenty of DSD files on the Aurender that I will be comparing between both units.
The Esoteric is starting to open up a little this morning I think only hinting at it’s true potential.
