Noushy Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 I have ordered my Premier DAC and it is in at the dealer. It has dual power supplies but not the powerbase. I chose to wait on the clock upgrade. I also ordered it with the renderer and upgraded USB inputs. I may just have the dealer get the clock upgrade as well since I heard it makes a noticeable improvement but have not had a chance to hear it myself. Also it is black in color. Will probably pick it up in about a month since I am in no hurry to tear down my system at this time and it allows my dealer to break it in. Let me know what you think about yours. I had a chance to get the Reference as a demo unit but even then it was still around $12K more than a fully loaded brand new Premiere with all the options. Noushy Link to comment
Noushy Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Thanks. I just pulled the trigger on the clock upgrade. Do you think it was worth it? My dealer will do the upgrade for me. Noushy Link to comment
Noushy Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 I have the new premier with all options and the V2 renderer. Have not used that yet and only place off my N10. As for filter settings I need to actually sit and listen. Mine has been setup by the dealer. Noushy Link to comment
Noushy Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 I have not found any settings on my premiere for filters either... Link to comment
Noushy Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 I think it is a matter of opinion. I have heard the select direct to an amp and amazing. I use my C2600 preamp between my premier and amp and believe it adds some warmth. The pre function in the premier is supposedly very good. Noushy Link to comment
Noushy Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Agreed. I saved for a long time and have an amazing dealer who worked with me. Did the upgrades little by little (femto clock, powerbase). Yes mine is around $40k complete with all upgrades but to each his own. People buy $200k cars all the time. Noushy Link to comment
Noushy Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Yup and my dealer took really good care of me! I have a lifetime piece and the option to upgrade at any time Link to comment
Noushy Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 I have gone through a few changes and currently using Mcintosh C1100 pre, MC1.25KW amps, Sonus Faber Il Cremonese speakers, Shunyata cabling and power management. Aurender N20 music server Link to comment
