Jazz from Hi-res DSD files

John was looking for a system that could fully exploit the highest quality DSD digital files.

John wanted to listen to Jazz music at the highest possible quality. He felt that the systems he had already auditioned didn't really do the audio files justice.

We set up a demo playing a 5.6MHz DSD file of "The Jazz Side of the Moon" bought from HDTracks - a 5GB file! To play the file we used "Pure Music" music player software on a Macbook Pro configured to stream the native DSD file via USB to an external DAC with the capability of detecting and playing native DSD at this resolution. As far as we know - this is the highest resolution digital music configuration possible.

On hearing the Colman Audio CA300 system playing in this configuration, John was extremely impressed. The clarity of each note played on the individual instruments, and the pin-sharp stereo soundstage, with each instrument exactly in position across the room impressed him greatly. He is now happily listening to his own CA300 at home.
