Wadia 121 Dedoding Computer?

Very disappointed it still uses a wall wart power supply...

I just thought I would write a few preliminary observations about the 121. I just received it today and it is working and sounding great. I also have a Rega Apollo. The Wadia appears to be better sounding across the board. It is very quiet, transparent, smooth and musical. I wasn't sure if I was going to go with a music server, but now I know I am. I encourage people to give it a listen. BTW I have it hooked up by USB running j river, set up as suggested on the computer audiophile. I did try coax, but prefer the USB input. I will likely try coax again after I have put some time on the Wadia.

I heard the Wadia 121 last night at my local dealers computer audio presentation. All of the equipment was high end except for the DAC's (Rockport Miras, Electrocompaniet Nemo amps, Electro pre, and top of the line Transparent cableing all around.) The shop is also an Arcam dealer so they A/B'd it continuosly with the Arcam D33 ($3200) DAC. They were using a Mac mini with USB, Amarra software and an Ipad. We listened to ripped CD tracks, Hi Res downloads from HD Tracks and some MP3's (no streaming files which I realy wanted to hear!). Even though the Wadia was not yet burned in, most, including myself, thought it was easily as good as the burned in Arcam. Even the MP3's sounded good!

I was very impressed as were all of the people who were in attendance. I'm definately considereing this!

Yep they sure try selling the Arcam.
