EMM original CDSD with DCC2-SE?


Anyone use this combo? How does it compare to a pure-SE pair? Thanks.

Bigamp, thanks. Unfortunately, there's no usb port on mine
(purchased new in Jan. 2005).
Thanks again. Anyone care to say how the sound improved? Was it a major difference?
Yes, that is just the kind of info I was was looking for.
Thanks a million for taking the time to write your impressions. No, EMM does not now (or in the recent past) offer CDSD upgrades. I have talked to them about it.
One more question, in case anyone knows (thanks):
Is the power supply different
on the CDSE-SE versus the older CDSD with the USB port?
(Frankg mentioned that above.)
Is the chassis different?
The EMM website refers to (for the CDSD-SE)
"Active power factor corrected (APFC) power supply.
Chassis extensively treated with vibration control material consisting of a highly-damped, low-rebound, rapid-settling polymer composite."

Thus, there seem to be hardware differences on the SE version, not just software ones.
Comments from anyone are welcome.
Sorry about confusing you with the other poster (too much late-night audiogon). Thanks for the info. It just seemed that the website indicated something different about the
power supply on the SE.
For the HE audio show in NY, 'love to meet any fellow
audiogoners who are going. How about 3pm Friday May 11
by the JM-Labs exhibit? Same Saturday. Just an idea.
That should be the Focal/JmLabs exhibit, which
is usually handled by Sound By Singer,
Friday May 11, 3pm.
