DCS Puccini + U-Clock : SOLD to the Netherlands

DCS Puccini + U-Clock

NETHERLANDS.

General : DCS Upsampling CD/SACD Player with preamplifier / DAC, and external U-Clock.

Technology : The DCS Puccini is truly packed with technical highlights. First and foremost, it is an excellent CD/SACD player. A solid transport mechanism with a metal tray. Second, the DCS Puccini has external digital inputs, allowing it to function as a DA converter for external sources. Third, the Puccini has a built-in DSD upsampler, which upsamples all signals to DSD. Finally, the Puccini has a built-in preamplifier to connect directly to power amplifiers. The DA converter is a proprietary DCS design, the 5-bit Ringdac. The built-in clock is of a very high level, but the DCS Puccini is lifted to a completely different level by means of the DCS U-Clock. This takes over the clock function from the Puccini, and furthermore, the U-Clock can also externally clock additional digital devices. The DCS Puccini U-Clock is a very special and excellent-sounding audio source.

Listening : The Puccini already sounds excellent on its own. A truly high-end performance level. Very analog sounding, with excellent spatial presentation, and all details are very easy to follow. The character of the playback is very analog. You might almost think it can't get any better, until you engage the U-Clock, which takes over the clock function. Suddenly the presentation grows in all dimensions, and not in a minor way. This is now truly top-tier playback.
