Ex Demo – Excellent Condition | Original Boxes, Manual, Remote control Chord iPod included
Reference Series Digital Center – Pre amplifier by Chord Electronics
The DAC is upgraded by Chord Electronics and is asynchronus USB DAC like in QBD 76 HDSD
Includes a Chord’s iPod for extreme sound quality.
Rarely has CD sounded so good
As expected, the design’s general sonic characteristics haven’t changed, but the latest iteration is clearly superior. It’s a phenomenally fluid-sounding circuit that makes CDs sound as natural and unforced as we’ve heard.
Resolution is exceptional, as is bass power and punch. In our experience rarely has digital, and compact disc in particular, sounded so good.
No matter what type of music you play or what digital source you feed into the Indigo’s DAC, we have no doubt you’ll hear more of the music through this than just about any alternative, no matter how much more it may cost.
Price-tag aside, this is a product everyone interested in quality hi-fi sound should celebrate.
The Indigo points the way to a future where it’s possible to make the best of computer-based storage devices within a high end hi-fi set-up. That future can’t come quick enough for us.
