Have an EMC1...it's pretty amazing right out of the box. What did you accomplish with the power cord upgrade, and maybe more importantly for me (I need almost 3 meters...ouch pricewise) I wonder what you were looking to do to the stock sound of the E? IMO,.the sound jump factor and the slam is awesome yet on Frank Sinatra it is like he is in the room and somehow more subtle. This is one different player...some of the older 16 bits that didn't play with my $8000 separates 'cause of grunge (and I had the top de-jitter hooked up) sound fine...other's its too "BIG" for the digital mistakes make last decade--or the 80s--in digital mastering. Which can be fixed by just turning down the volume a little...otherwise this is more amazing than the Levinson was when I first heard the separates.
Brulee: wrote text above (Djin) but would like to know why you upgraded in some specific terms what you noticed as the change? How was your EMC 1 stock?? (Mine came with European cord so I had to use 14ga "Belden" shielded--the AudioAsylum fave--and wonder what I would encounter with a custom 8=8ft cord? Thanks
