Summary:
This is a first review of the WADIA 781 Statement modification by GNSC.
I have had a truly wonderful CD player before, owning a BOW ZZ8. Now the Wadia 781 is both wonderful and extremely useful, as it is a fully connectable, remote controlled, digital center, which is indeed used as such in my studio: Especially the newly developped USB link make it unrivalled, as the sound quality is equal to good CD perfromance, with good SACD or even higher resolution harddisk performance still having an edge on those formats: But we are talking extremely high levels here, and one has to get everything else right as well, until you here those differences.
The Wadia therefore has an outstanding soundcharakter (Piano!) and unrivalled practical uses in use both with Computer and Wadia I170 sources (also modified by GNSC).

LBNL: I aquired this device from GNSC, and they provided extremely good guidance on all relevant questions, including outlook and coverage. So I could imagine, this whole package of ideal seller and ideal machine adds a lot to my psychological wellbeing ;-)
Value is top, despite not being cheap, and you can say it looking from both ways!

So many to choose from! Lets us boil it down. How to Choose a Floorstanding Speaker that fits you:

Give someone the gift of hi-fi. Or make the step yourself. Let us point the way...

Moscode 402Au OLT stereo power amplifier Review

George is adamant about the fact that the Moscode 402Au is not just a tube gain stage slapped onto a solid-state power amplifier; rather, it is a tube amplifier with a MOSFET output stage.

Lowther’s DX-65 driver in the Teresonic Magus XR Review

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
