Brilliant recent review on Audiodrom: "Now I will drop a bomb: for my ears, the Studio Player conquered the combination of the Taiko Olympus XDMI system with the Aries Cerat Kassandra DAC that I had in the exact same system. The latter is 2.5-times more expensive combo than the integrated Studio Player. I think that the integration provides unique advantages that are unachievable with split components. It is why I don’t buy the idea of Wadax to expand the Studio Player into more devices."

I am assuming you being sarcastic here.. Do correct me if I am wrong... It's a 40,000 USD product and it sounded the same or similar to a 100,000 USD product...

" Designed for expansion, add-on components like the Studio PSU, Studio Clock or the Akasa DC Studio cablefurther elevate performance, ensuring Studio • Player evolves alongside your system."

It is so good but still not good enough that you can increase it's performance by adding another exorbitantly priced Wadax product like a PSU, clock or even a cable...

I don't know about the product but the reviewer is doing an excellent job here....apologies for my rant as the cricket match being played with Pakistan is to be blamed...

Not being sarcastic. I just liked the review. The reviewer had the chutzpah to compare two systems and state unequivocally that the cheaper one sounded better. Hard to find this kind of blunt/honest reporting in the audiophile world today.

Also if a 40k product sounds better than a 100k one. That's great all around for everyone. Isn't it?

The reviewer also laments Wadax adding two pricey boxes to an "amazing" product, and ruining its value proposition.
