I hope this brings to light at least a little bit of all Ed Meitner has accomplished. Truly a genius designer.

An actual engineer schools the entire high-end audio industry with one interview. Amazing really. Goes to show what high-end audio has become.

Thank you so much for this wonderful interview. Ed Meitner still is, today, one of the last geniuses in high fidelity. So humble and so aware of what really matters. Long life!

Definitely not easy, but he's a fascinating guy with a real story.

He is one of the true giants of Audio, I have owned in the past many products from him

Love it! Nice to have all these important achievements of a humble guy on record!

Interesting man and career.

Excellent job! Now I want a DS optical cartridge and Meitner optical phono stage.

SoundStage! senior editor Jason Thorpe loves the DS Audio cartridges -- and uses EMM Labs and Meitner phono stages as his references.

The evolution chapter.

So interesting

Good interview, but boy, you have to pull information out of him. Without prompting, everything would be a one word answer.

Maybe you should tell Esoteric/DCS/MSB that they dont know what they are doing.

MSB has an internal clock. Personally, I'd rather have EMM Labs or MSB gear than DCS. The external clocks might be producing shaped jitter to modify and correct non-linearity in their DACs, or simply to add needed color.

@@chipsnmydip means you have no idea what a grandioso clock does with the dac, nor vivaldi apex. The amount of realism , articulation of soundstage and depth increases can’t be realised without experiencing it . I’m not saying em lab is bad , after experiencing em labs vs dacs using superior external clock I can assure you that em labs isn’t the match .

@@SagorHossain-eu3uw I know that it makes some DACs sound better. But my reference comes from pro audio where external clocks aren't that big of a thing except for Antelope Audio. Antelope actually corrects the clocking, and then reintroduced shaped jitter to create a euphoric effect. I dont know Esoteric, but I wouldnt be surprised if DCS does a similar thing to overcome some of their cold house sound. It might sound better, but through euphonic coloration. The process of sending the clock over a seperate cable and recovering it itself introduces jitter.

Whats with interviewer? Comes across more like an interrogator.
