I have heard the Burmester 069 for over 50 hours. It is simply the most dramatic, sensual, emotional and grain/grunge free CD source I have ever heard. I am buyig the 001 becuase it is in the Burmester family and will use it as a preamp, cdp and dac for my blu-ray player and cable box. I do not bother with multi channel nor hi-rez.I feel completley satisfied when I listen to Burmester gear.
EMM DCC2/CDSD versus Esoteric X-01
To stoke the raging fires in the current discussions about the relative virtues of the EMM DCC2/CDSD combination,
I would welcome comments from those who had the rare opportunity of auditioning, and possibly trying out the Esoteric X-01, the CD/SACD only version of the slightly better known UX-1.
If you had the additional privilege of comparing either X-01 or UX-1 with the EMM DCC2/CDSD combination, your comments would be especially appreciated.
