Some of my stellar recordings on SACD (yamamotos albums for example) are on a level similar to my best vinyl. Some of the best digital files i own/tidal recordings, come so damn close to my SACD's it's not even funny. The Aurender W20 gets you so close to digital nirvana, esp when you own the D02X and P02X. I owned the N10 before I got the W20. I actually sold my N10 to an AA'r and was able to compare them side by side. While the N10 is a stellar unit, the W20 is in a league of its own when it comes down to image saturation and musicality.

My question is how close will the W20 connected via dual AES get to the sound of the P-02X? The N100H while a nice unit isn't close.
