Taiko SGM Extreme – Good things arrive at the people who stand by!
Later what feels like a lifetime holding up I'm presently enchanted and monstrously pleased to declare that the Taiko SGM Extreme Music Server is currently on show on Audio Therapy.
The SGM Extreme is a consequence of numerous long periods of meticulous exploration and improvement by Emile Bok and his gifted group of designers at Taiko.
The outcome is a zero trade off music server, intended to offer the extremely best playback of privately put away music records just as streamed music from both Tidal and Qobuz. It works on the Roon point of interaction and goes about as both Core and Endpoint. Weighing at 45kg the form quality, tender loving care (there are 6000 CNC accuracy penetrated openings in the casework) and put-togetherness is a-list!
In execution terms the Taiko SGM Extreme is without a doubt a disclosure, in the 3 or 4 days I have been utilizing it my demo framework I'll be straightforward and say it has totally realigned my reference point. I'm hearing things I've never heard and it has in a real sense has been made framework totally vanish. Somebody asked me just yesterday, it is actually amazing? what's more the response was no, it's better!
Neighborhood content consistently sounds better compared to streamed content, however in any event, streaming Qobuz by means of Roon on the Taiko is outflanking anything I've at any point experienced and afterward obviously the privately put away substance is better once more!!
Taiko are not becoming complacent, they as of now have the best computerized streaming that exists on the planet today, however they are really during the time spent fostering their own connection point called TAS, this is right now in beta structure and is now altogether beating Roon in playback terms!
I've not set up TAS yet on my demo machine as I need a little while to become accustomed to how it performs on Roon first.
A broad blog entry is coming on the Taiko which will delve into a ton of detail on the machine, it's exhibition and how it does what it does!
I'll concede that given the cost of confirmation the Taiko will not be everybody, the fortunate not many as a general rule, however this is one genuinely game evolving item. The Taiko begins at £25,000 with 2TB of capacity, my demo unit is £27,300 with 6TB of capacity and their new USB sound module.
Taiko Audio SGM Extreme successes Hi-Fi Plus Server of the Year
The Taiko Audio SGM Extreme Music Server has recently won the Hi-Fi Plus Magazine Award for "Computerized Server of the Year" in their honors (issue 202).
The Extreme was investigated at first only 3 months prior in issue 199 and it didn't need to stand by long to win the honor. Which isn't is to be expected when you know what the Taiko is equipped for conveying. Evaluated from £25,000 the Extreme might be for the fortunate not many actually and many individuals won't ever encounter exactly how great the Extreme is and what it does to you your music
I frequently contend that assuming you are not in the situation to buy something it's most likely best not to pay attention to it as it tends to be a touch of soul-annihilating experience, however I should say with the Taiko Extreme everybody should encounter what it can achieve, it is a particularly solid entertainer and stands up until this point separated from all the other things that is classed a server or decoration, it's quite terrifying!
I did an exhibit of an Extreme prior in the week, for a client Aurender W20, associated by means of USB into a Vitus SCD-025 mk2 and a Vitus SIA-030 coordinated enhancer, his speakers are a couple of Vimberg Tonda Diamonds and the entire framework is secluded on Stillpoints Ultra 5's (speakers) and Ultra 6's (hardware) and is wired and ground start to finish with Entreq. The room is treated with a considerable exhibit of Acustica Applicata and it's a framework I'm tremendously glad to have had the option to assemble, in the event that any framework is deserving of a source, for example, the Taiko this is it!
I'd jokily cautioned the client that it would not take him extremely long to get what was going on with the Extreme. I got a major grin and approval inside around 10 seconds of the principal track playing and he had requested that I request one for him later the second track had finished. He was completely hoping to need to tune in for seven days, to and fro making examinations between his Aurender and the Extreme.
The leap was goliath, the music was genuine, liquid, drawing in like anything more the client had at any point experienced. Following 30 minutes of playing a determination of music we realized well the client was in tears and I was battling them back also. A melodic and enthusiastic masterpiece if there at any point was one!!!
Look at the connection underneath to the Hi-Fi Plus audit that prompted the honor.
I have a Taiko SGM Extreme on show and to encounter the best computerized server/decoration cash can purchase don't spare a moment to reach out. In any event, when utilized with an unassuming DAC the word Extreme has never been utilized all the more suitably!
