To WHF team...... (and also to everyone that has made a comparison) or just share thoughts!
in your review of dac XP+ you say:
"Puts control ahead of excitement;
we respect the DAC XP+ rather than love it.
If control and composure suit your tastes, great, but it doesn’t have to be that way"
But in review of CDXT SE+/DAC X+/PSX-R you are completely excited by the performance of the DAC X+, of course paired with the transport.
What dac xp+ lacks in excitement?
Can you explain how different will sound dac xp+ with cdxt se+ compared to the dac x+?
does the built in preamp somehow affect the dac performance?
Is it better to take cdxt se+/dac x+/pre/power or... cdxt se+/ dac xp+/power?
Thanks!
