    Super Stereo DN78
    Sound: Very warm and soft. The best performance is achieved by setting the channel volume to the maximum and looking for the channel clip with the gain. This way you get the best of the valve a beautiful sound in the bass and mid bass with a feeling of soft compression very warm and organicSmooth distortion at high frequencies.
    Feeling: The tracks fuse very well when mixing, the ISO is a bit handy, it puts + 8 db but to me it seems that it is quite more.
    Aesthetics: It's nice even though it has controls with slightly scattered locations
    Condesa Lucia
    Sound: Beautiful, warm, spacious and with lots of air. Their harmonics fall in love. Hugs you. HiFi
    Feeling: the most demanding audiophiles should be very satisfied with such a mixer. I see it perfect to play music with soul. The ISO is very soft and friendly, I know that there are now options of discrete ISO and ISO IC 24db that will surely be more playful
    Aesthetics: Beautiful and robust. It is a beauty. I think that condesa makes the most beautiful mixers in the world.

    I’ve really enjoyed this video, thanks. Just dipping my toe into the world of rotary mixers now. I have a small suggestion: when you really need to nudge the pitch on a live track, that’s a perfect time to kill the lower frequencies, as it will hide that pitch bending sound.

    What a difference in sound! The sound of the Condesa suits my ears better, than the more high sounding DN78.

    High sound clearer (better) to my ears on the first one plus I prefer the layout but I wouldn’t kick either out of bed!

    Important to notice that while the DN78 is playing the first song there's an important part that has the middle range knob a little bit up, whereas when the Condesa is playing all knobs are straight

    Nice vidéo thanks !!
    i have a Lucia for mixing house and electronic music so i am happy with it a lot of low end but really the dn78 sound brighter !! and i think for an audiophile it will be the dn 78 to my ears....
    But for mixing house Lucia has a killer low end, send return for fx, crossfader like cue, and the switch phono/line is just perfect for cuts !!!

    super stereo sounds way clearer, condesa smoother, warmer. The question should be, how do they compare to the original track. But both, amazing mixers.

    Would be great to download the same record through each mixer on same record player as seperate wav file to compare. This is not so easy here jumping forth and back. Hm, i think DN78 is clearer and more detailed in stereo signal.

    The Lucia sounds veiled compared to the DN78, which sounds absolutely incredible, probably the best sounding mixer on the market right now.

  • @CleanConnections

    Really hard to tell on TH-cam but nice to see them in action, the condesa is a tad more expensive but I guess in this price bracket they are pretty close. Which do you think has the better build quality?

    Hello. Very well done, thank you for this upload. May I ask which cartridge/stylus you are using on your 1210s? Thanks and cheers from way up north!

  • @eyesintheskies
    @eyesintheskies ปีที่แล้ว

    Feel the valves colour the sound a bit more on the Condesa not necessarily a bad thing.
    The dn78 just seems a bit more true to source.
    Are they both discrete ?
    Can you bypass the valves or are they integral to the circuit.
    Would be nice if you had some kinda control of them.
    I’m splitting hairs here, they both sound lush 😂
    Nice mix 👍

    For my money the Super Stereo has a clearer sound. Condessa sounds a bit muddy in comparison. Also, on the last track (what is it?) I'm hearing pops over the Condessa that are not heard on the Super Stereo. Compare 22:06-22:16 to 11:06-11:16. Definitely a lot more pops . . . hard to attribute that to a mixer though.

      False, thats a scratch on the record, he even points it out with the finger at 18:45 before placing it on the turntable.

    How long had the DN78 been running when you made the recording? I understand the sound will change as the valve warms up.

    Damn, why are the pops so much more prevalent when you are playing on the Lucia, than when you were on the DN78?!? Like, my studio monitors were "snap, crackle, popping" so loud I had to turn the volume down. Hmm, that's weird.
