I’ve had great success with Akio Audio products and now have the Solo, Conundrum, and three Castello’s, which connect to all my major components in my music and home theatre products.
My system is now totally silent with absolute black backgrounds both for music and movie watching.
The Solo and last Castello are new, about 3 weeks old now, and Akiko Audio recommend 6 weeks for their products to reach optimum performance so there should be more improvements to come but I’ve stated how my music system now sounds in the SR Pink and AM M2 thread.
I now feel I’ve reached a peak in my music system that won’t be bettered as I’m getting on in years and no longer have the funds to further experiment with major component changes.
But saying that I’m very happy with the sound I am now enjoying.
