The Environment:
Amplifier: Marantz SR 6006
Speaker: ELAC FS 247
Setter Tablet: Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition or
Setter smartphone Samsung Galaxy S4 mini
Music from Spotify Premium
But then:
Egg connected via the RCA input of the amplifier: Input CD
(The egg unfortunately has no digital output)
The egg powered via included power supply (with x adapters for half to whole world)
The button on the key until it flashes egg.
Bluetooth on the tablet / smartphone on.
Pairing with Arcam Mini Blink
Selection of titles in Spotify
... And
... The thing sounds gigantic, spatially resolved cleanly, analytically (I like that), much better than most MP3s
Music: from pop to classical - the egg plays to excellent.
Film music, such as Hans Zimmer, King Arthur, etc. Wow
Particularly impressive were noise (which buys you otherwise hardly):
Just looking at Spotify!
Often one is right in the middle, like this live.
eg:
Nature sounds, thunderstorm, thunder, Thunder, rain, birds, ...
Marine engines: Boat Sound Effects, (1930s vintage ... Runabout, 1950 Vintage Cabin Cruiser ..., twin engine, 2400 HP ...)
Cars: Sports Cars Sound Effects (75 Cobra Rs427)
Steam Locomotives, Steam Engine, Steam Locomotive
War Drum, Bass Drum
Some make goosebumps
I give it 5 stars *****
