Sunlight: Sound Impressions

6 posts were merged into an existing topic: Sunlight: Installation and Technical Issues

I used to up convert everything to DSD256 using JRiver until I installed the DSD. Now I run everything native as I think it sounds better with it.

It’s a tough one for me Also. For me, neither Windom or Sunlight give a complete picture. I find Windom a little soft, diffuse, lacking in leading edge bite, and bass is a tad indistinct. It’s like the whole sonic picture has had the leading edges taken off it, from top to bottom.

Sunlight is the opposite, all of a sudden, theres a huge amount of leading edge information, which lends the overall image a touch edgy and hard. My system doesn’t tend towards bright, I run harbeths and hegel. But I can’t quite get the balance right with the DSJ. I’d like something half way between Windom and Sunlight, but such a creature doesn’t exist.
