    As a current BDA3 owner that's thinking about an upgrade, I too would be interested in your impressions of this T&A.

    You certainly make a case for the NAD; a nice all inclusive digital hardware package just add DAC.

    With so much good stuff out there, making a choice can be daunting. It's great to have...

    Re: Gear Warm Up Experiment

    I have found that the system can sound off when first turning it on, improving over the next 30 to 45 minutes.

    Thank you for the details on the NAD. It is certainly an interesting product.
    Although my dealer of choice does not carry NAD, I will keep not in mind.

    Enjoy the Sounds,

    Jack-

    I'm a little confused here. Can you take a picture and post it?

    Re: Finally Pulled the Trigger

    The outline you speak of might be the silver outside of the HDMI plug?
    Have you tried a cable?
    HDMI goes in one way and an HDMI cable can be confused with a USB A cable.
    So, try it both ways and...

    Thanks for your reply. While I have not had a chance to listen to the D07x yet, I am leaning heavily toward it. It does share many components with the D10x you have.

    Looks like you by-pass the DAC in the X1 and use the D10x DAC. I assume you prefer the D10x. I ask as I am currently considering moving from my present Mc CD player and Bryston DAC to a...
