Discovering Roon added a vital missing ingredient to my entirely digital music collection. Previous options such as Audirvana now seem crude and clumsy. Roon does nothing to improve the fidelity of digital music, but gives back the joy of sleeve notes and so much more. Moving my collection to a SDHD installed within the Roon Nucleus means I now have an elegant, 100% silent well made grey box within my HiFi setup. Replacing a MacBook and external drive. Just perfect. As is the service from Jack. Room, Nucleus and The Audio Barn are very much recommended.

I went to The Audio Barn do an A/B test of a couple of Chord power amps. One of the reasons I choose the Audio Barn (it is not local to me) is because Jack genuinely cares about music. he does get excited by the kit and even more importantly the music reproduction. Whilst evaluating the amplifiers I became curious about the Hugo M Scaler. Could it live up to the hype? Well, more than. This is a game changer. Rob Watts is a genius, leading Chord in the development of digital music like no other manufacturer. Do go hear the M Scaler for yourself, but be prepared to but it, because once heard there is no going back to digital music without the M Scaler. It unlocks what is really within a 16/44 file, what it does with 24/44 is simply jaw dropping. If you struggle with digital music because it sounds obviously digital then M Scaler is what you need. Now it is as good, if not better, than analogue. Don’t believe me, go listen. So my amplifier budget went on the M Scaler. I’ve no regrets. But now furiously saving to return to the Audio Barn and get a new amplifier. Which look likely to be a Chord Etude.

Probably the best audio equipment I ever own, comprehensive music server. The multirooms to various endpoints and other options like Dsd or Dsp. Honestly, just DEMO it before you commit any funds
