Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD

1 speaker is downstairs, the other is still in the garage. My 14 year old helped me get one down but he had to leave for a school function. I'm hoping he can help me get the other down tonight. I should have everything set up by Saturday. Fingers crossed.

Matt, try to get MSB with the new Quad DSD USB input module. I have read the new module is better with all music, not just DSD.

The lowest bottom frequency is 45Hz (anechoic). It is like bookshelf bottom end!

Hmmm, bass response seems to be a little suboptimal for the large drivers on these JBLs. G.

Abe- the MSB has the Quad DAC.

The JBL synthesis stuff has never focused on going super low. Even their theater speakers only go down to the mid 50's. It's a design philosophy, although if you hear their higher end speakers they don't sound like their limited. They are very natural sounding....
