Once Sunlight is released, post your impressions of the sound here.

Sunlight rescues CD from the Good Will bin. Picked up a used copy of “Cure * Wish” a week ago and wasn’t impressed with the sound quality or the music, so I placed in the reject pile. Decided to play it today to hear how it sounded with Sunlight, and I almost didn’t recognize it. Not only was the s…

had the same reaction to the Norah Jones Live cd. meh and not great sounding at all and it was in the reject pile as well. tried it again and now it is a keeper. so i know what you mean.

Clarity, better ambience, enhanced instrumental separation, and cleaner lower frequencies are my impressions. Also the dynamics seems improved, more lively sound Its really special this time, this version shines. I´m sooo happy cheers Ted, and the PS Audio staff Michael

Shortly after installing Windom, while I did appreciate its sound quality, I started experiencing some listening fatigue during musical passages with multiple high pitch voices singing together (a single voice was not an issue). In an effort to eliminate listening fatigue, I changed my speakers from…

I still am having issues with Sunlight. Does anyone have the Chesky CD Beethoven no 9 Rene Leibowitz? Track 04 Presto 9:00, there is a consistent triangle. It is pure but… I dunno, kinda stands out… I am not being picky here, it calls my attention to it… should not do that. Or should it? Any…

I’ve always had fixed volume at 100, but I tried fixed volume at 92. It sounded smoother, less edgy. By the way, with the new Sunlight, I’m noticing louder click/pop noise on DSD compared to the previous releases. Why?

One of the things I did to get better sound disabled the ramp up after an automatic mute when sample rates change, DSD/PCM changes, preemphasis changes, etc. So instead of ramping up over 10 or so milliseconds it’s silent for that time and then the new material starts. In my (apparently too limite…

I hoped maybe Sunlight fixes the not working gapless DSD and 24/192 play with Jriver, which was introduced by the last 2 Bridge firmware updates and never fixed again. But I know this must be a Bridge firmware issue. Would it have occurred with Roon, it probably would have been fixed I guess.

So—I’m curious how this actually happened, but I have mentioned more than once that I found certain tones to be distorted and harsh; piano, vibes, sax on certain cd’s with Sunlight. I went back and forth, Windom to Sunlight many times until I decided to just let Sunlight play for days. And the har…
