I love the positive musical intent, clarity and connection that the D10/C10/T10 combination delivers. But, the eight-box, 10 Series digital set-up stands head and shoulders above the five-box option, as well as the other big-bit, high-res alternatives, swimming in the alphabet soup of pricey contenders. It rams home the performance advantages available from optical disc replay done right, reasserting both the performance possibilities and relevance of CD and SACD. On the bleeding edge of currently attainable digital performance, it doesn’t just deliver that performance now: it promises to maintain that level through the company’s proven, modular engineering approach and cost-neutral upgrades, protecting what is a substantial investment. Undeniably (unashamedly?) costly – perhaps unbelievably – CH Precision’s 10 Series digital set-up does actually make sense: engineering sense, long-term sense, but above all, it makes sense of your music – all of your music. With engineering and products like this, digital is finally delivering on its promise.
