CJ ART vs. ML Ref 32 vs. Boulder 1012


I'm looking to upgrade my Line Stage and Phono Stage, as well as add a DAC to my system. I'm considering all three units listed, as well as others. Please note that single box front end vs. separate components is not an issue.

I also realize that all three are top shelf units above are different animals. Any insight or recommendations would be appreciated. Additional considerations: Rowland Coherence & Lamm Products

Current system:

Pass X1 Line Stage
Pass X600 Monos
B&W N802 (Probable upgrade to Avalon Eidolon or Wilson Max)
Electrocompaniet EMC-1
SME 10 Table

until you've heard a Lamm linestage, you're wasting your time. my experience after spending too many $$ chasing overhyped alternatives. expensive yes, but they are the best...
