Esoteric P-70 and D-70

Considering purchasing these combo units. I am concerned about the sweetness and top-end air. Anyone personally listened to both together? If so, what was the ancillary equipment? Could you please describe the sound, indicating the source discs, if known. Also, could anyone compare this combo to the Reimyo, Accustic Arts combo units and EMM combo units for Redbook CD ONLY. I am not interested in SACD. Thanks.

Teajay, thank you for the info. I actually prefer a sound which is slightly leaning to the #1 sound. Who doesn't like detail, as long as it is sweet, delicate, and uncolored? But you are correct; I don't want an analytical sound.

Does the Reimyo extract as much detail as the Esoteric? Does it do so in a natural, organic manner? There usually is a continuum--on the one side,very detailed and analytical--what some have labeled type#1. On the other side--warmth, sweetness and a certain tubelike quality--BUT MISSING some of the detail.

IS ANYONE AWARE OF A REDBOOK PLAYER OR COMBO UNIT THAT GETS BOTH "JUST RIGHT"? If so, please let all of us know?
