Electrocompaniet CDP

I am demoing a EMC-1UP CDP from a local dealer. I have always liked this cdp from a distance and am growing fond of it for the few days I have had it so far. Some worries, I really love my vinyl and once I get my new Cart. upgrade and walker motor controler I will love my vinyl even more, (i.e. what do I need a cd player upgrade for?), and I don't know much about the company. Any experience with customer service, realiablity, repairs, US distributor etc? I like the unit, it integrates well into my system and looks great but there are many choices out there and this is not a player the graces the american reviewers desk much. Thanks in advance. PS, system is posted.

I owned this player for 3 years and "never" had a problem with it.It is one fine music making machine and I would recommend it highly.

Clement Perry did a review of it on his Stereotimes.com web site.You can go to the archives and look up the review. Mr.Perry gave a rave and I couldn't agree more,the EMC-1UP is one of those hidden gems in the audio world.

Good listening...

Davt,

I see you use Shunyata power cords,if at all possible you should really give a listen to the Electrocompaniet being feed by a Shunyata Phyton VX,it brings the 1-up to a level that you must hear to believe.

Also the pairing of the 1-up, Python,and a Whest Audio Dap-10 makes for a hands down contender for some of the best digital play-back that I have ever heard.Its a really musical combination that has to be heard.

Good Listening
