Ok got the delivery of the cec tl-5 . Have hooked it using the aes/ebu output to the dCS Bartok using Furutechs alphaseries cable and connector…
Glorious .. been flipping cds all day… ripped cds vs cds .. there is no contest .. have the same cds ripped to aiff on the nucleus . The cec rips it apart … there is no contest …
Cec gives a warm presentation which i like … its improving with the number of hrs. Tried it with/ withiut the isoacoustics footers . The stock cec footers are pretty decent imo . However shall investigate further … built superbly .. i think definetly the TL-5 definetly kicks way above its price point.
