I get most of my music via Squeezebox Touch or LP12 these days but still use my Meridian 506 now and again as a CD transport feeding BM Dac2-A/B comparisons with SBT usually ending in a too close to call(or the SBT tending to go a bit deeper).
I'd always liked the 506 and dropped it into the system when it was left to me, replacing a Teac T1 that had just had the drawer/gear wheel issue only partially repaired and for 2 years gone unused.
With time on my hands I fettled the T1 so it was functioning 100% and readied it for sale.
Last night in order to check all was well I swapped out the 506 and was very surprised at the improvement. Ambience, bandwidth and separation are all much improved-my system has never sounded better.
So, what to do now as A/B with the SBT show its playback to be significantly inferior.
