    It’s both, but their strength is DSD (SACD). They still dominate by a country mile for SACD (which is DSD on a disc). In my opinion…. Best DAC’s for DSD: - Esoteric - Lampizator - Meitner/EMM (not my kind of sound, but they execute it...

    Hello heihei,

    I was wondering what your thoughts were on the Coincident Statement Linestage, and whether you have found something better. I had it in my system for a while, and want I'm not sure whether I want to purchase it, or shoot for something else. I am tempted to blind purchase the Wooden Preamp, which Joe on here has compared favorably to his GAT. I will extrapolate that the Wooden Preamp will be better than the CSLS since the GAT should be - I know these things aren't absolute, but I'm trying to make the most effective upgrade since the Wooden Preamp is cheaper than the CSLS.

    Hi Heihei, thank you for your reply.
    It is comforting to hear you say they are superb. I had my first good listen last night and I agree with you.
    I had a Gryphon Antileon Signature and ARC Ref250se before the Audionets. I think the Audionets beat them both.
    I hope you are right about ongoing support and service, that is my concern at the moment.
    I am based in Australia, so not as conveniently located But if advice and parts are available that would be a great thing.
    Hopefully another company buy them and keep the brand going.
    Thanks again, Rob

    Hello Heihei
    I recently purchased Audionet Max & PreG2.
    The news of them going bankrupt concerns me of course.
    Ive not had them long, can I ask if you are happy with them?
    I am hoping I have purchased nice equipment.
    Regards Rob
