A couple of points missed here: Schiit’s digital guru, Mike Moffat created Urd because once they figured out the USB output, Mike found Unison to Unison (into their Yggdrasil OG) sounded better than spdf. They also chose that transport mechanism because it’s CD only. It’s not a bd/dvd/cd drive. It’s only for 16/44 CD audio because it’s still a really good format.

My takeaway from the dvd player video was "Hey, if you already have an old DVD player or something laying around, start using it as a CD transport to see if you even like the format, which you will."

I'm still using an old Oppo for my CDs, SACDs, and HDCDs. My system isn't really in a range where I need more, but it is a great entry point even for people that might want something fancier down the road.

This was really fun to see the two of you together. I loved the coffee making intro! I think the Urd is really cool. I like Schiit’s willingness to bring things to market that interest them, balanced by their pragmatic approach to products continuation in their line-up. I wish the Sol turntable would have been continued and had a chance to evolve.

Thank you for the very enjoyable video Randy. CAM and Darko (& Steve) bring so much to this hobby / passion. And lowfi & hifi gear makers I would think are grateful to the videos you produce as well, since they stimulate demand. I thought something was "brewing" from both of your last videos, with your slow panning shots and John's coffee intro!

One of the big reasons that clocks are important in the recording world is so that all of your digital devices are working on the same clock. The benefit is so that all of your digital devices are working on the same clock. If different digital devices are working on different clocks that will cause jitter. This is not an issue when you are using a single device for playback. I am not saying that a clock won't help with resolution (I honestly don't know) but the reason they are used in studios is due to measurable issues of differing clocks in different devices.

This is the collaboration that was unexpected but something we needed! Awesome conversation. I have wondered before as to how a conversation between John and Randy would go. They bring such diverse conversations from every spectrum of price points.

I enjoyed the back and forth between the two of you. I've watched and subscribed to both of you for at least a couple of years.. About a month ago I decided I needed a SACD player. I looked around at buying used, searched what others said, and paid particular attention to anywhere I could see the internals. This is what I purchased. Pioneer DV-46AV. I use the COAX output to an external DAC. It sounds great. I listen to some of my music which either of you would likely run away from. Old Jazz and a recent purchase of Anna Lapwood playing pipe organ. There are only certain times where I can use my speakers playing that music. I have two subwoofers. This is the beauty of having a good CD player. No wow/flutter and absolutely no rumble. Great video 👍

Ha! So cool you both got together to chat and talk CDs and audio. I’ve been following you both for a few years, and spent nearly all of 2022 buying nearly everything Randy recommended. My various lower end systems are hugely improved thanks to CAM. And some of the gear, including the Schiit stuff and my WiiM Pro, are helping my primary systems reach their max potential. Regarding music preferences, you guys are always fun. Darko and his Techno fetish and Randy, who likes all kinds of music as long as it’s Metallica! Throw in the Audiophiliac and you’ve got pretty much everything I listen to covered. Great video! And btw, all three Under The Covers CDs by Sweet & Hoffs are excellent!

Love how Randy has such a big hifi channel and still talks of NuMetal being some of his favorite music. As a metalcore fan I’d love to be able to try out speakers in a store with stuff I’d listen too at home but isn’t going to happen. I was once in a B&W store and when I told the guy I listen to rock and metal, he said me too and put on Toto!
