Chevron paradox NOS digital front end Comprises of chevron paradox DAC, earlier model without digital display. Two inputs, one is directly clock linked to the transport via an optical and a single digital Phono lead, the other is an optical connection that I've used with Apple TV to stream Spotify. Inputs are switchable by toggle switch. The clock link does make a difference although I'm not technical enough to explain why, but the whole thing hangs together better when in that mode. The DAC has a separate (And heavy) off board power supply that is connected via a din to din lead. On off is via toggle switch. It's superbly put together. The transport is a modified pioneer PDS stable platter unit that works beautifully and is a pleasure to use. If you've never used one,* Cds are loaded upside down and the drawer movement is smooth and well engineered. All work was completed by Colin at Chevron. Comes with interconnecting cables. I am the second owner and I think I've had this around 5 years. The longest I have ever owned any piece of hifi in 30 years. A really difficult decision. I'm now using a Resolution audio opus 21 which suits what I need at this moment, it doesnt however sound as good as the Chevron set up but I need the space on my rack. £500.
