Later, I decided to bring the Aura Note into my main rig for a few days.

It was also capable of better soundstaging, the width and depth were much clearer defined than before. The Aura Note had similar family sound as the Stello CDT+DAC pair - the sound had good body, some warmth and a fluidity that brought to mind tube gear. I even got an unsolicited comment from my 9-year-old son that music вЂsounded clearer lahвЂ™, the difference was stark enough even for a child listening just casually to notice. The Aura Note presented more details and significantly more musical overall. It was surprising because before this I thought the Denon AVR + Sony DVD player combo (at 2/3 the price of the Aura Note) with the DVD player acting as a transport was doing music quite well with the SF. The Aura Note showed that the Denon+Sony was veiled, smeared, and slower. After less than 15 minutes, it was abundantly clear that the Aura Note sounded much better than the Denon+Sony. I did the bulk of listening on cd and also some mp3 via a thumdrive. I was ready see what the RM6k Aura Note could do.

The Denon/Sony/Sonus Faber system was doing both movie and music duties in the living room. The Aura Note replaced a Denon AVR and a Sony DVD player, and was hooked up to a pair of Sonus Faber Concerto Home. My family went вЂoohsвЂ™ and вЂaahsвЂ™ seeing how a cd was put in, it was a new experience as they were used to the ubiquitous sliding tray all this while. This is a real nice high end touch, Aura Note said that it was designed for sound quality considerations, attesting to the attention they paid to the ultimate music listening experience вЂ“ you slide the transparent glass cover to one side, put in a cd and then weigh it down with the magnetic puck. It instantly attracted the attention of my wife and children, they commented positively on its look, and then everyoneвЂ™s attention shifted to the top loading cd transport. I first installed the Aura Note in my living room system. Its shiny fascia is a great attraction for finger prints though, however in operation, your finger may not need to touch those shiny parts one bit, as the whole machine can be controlled from the credit card type remote control. The design of the Aura Note is simply stylish, it was carried out by Kenneth Grange, a famous industrial designer in the UK.
