Yes, it was. The SSR in my system is better, but not by all that much. Both the upgraded Rendu and the SSR are phenominal.

Just received my SSR, and I can attest that that the SSR does have more noticeable resolution than the standard one. Amazing, since the standard model was significantly better than my PS Audio bridge in my PS Audio DSD. The extra cost of the SSR, I think, is worth it, but it's also an example of diminishing returns.
