So I have heard the Rossini & Clock and own a Vivaldi. The Rossini get's closer than you might expect given the price differential. I agree with you that the current dCS line up is quite organic, deep textures and basically and arguably the best out there. Enough to make quite a few vinyl bigots (like me) just sit back and enjoy. In a dCS system, I think a clock is necessary which ever route you go. But you can also go with a Vivaldi DAC and a Rossini Clock...just a thought.
Given your system, you'll hear the extra the Vivaldi brings to the table...but you'll also just sit back and enjoy a Rossini also. They are both fantastic...
Thank you j, I was hoping that you might contribute given your first hand experience on this topic, If I may, With regard purely to the fidelity of playback, would you as a staring point personally prefer Vivaldi Player and DAC Or Vivaldi DAC and Clock ?
