I had read about this and bought the one I heard at an exhibition. The internal "flash" memory is actually an SSD of 64 Gb. Mine is now full with just over 100 albums in it. The English importers will change the original SSD for larger ones as they become available. The Embla should handle up to 2 Tb. As for the sound, I prefer it to my Ayre CX5e, but that's just me. The Embla is much better at playing the initial part of the note. The amount of information it retrieves is astounding. Fingers on strings, breath between teeth and saliva in mouths, it's all there.
Just need to afford some more Solid State drives.The bits in memory are to the DAC under total control of the player. This is not possible when the data is read off a disk.
