Neuance & Zoethecus,EMC-1UP & First Sound Preamp?


I am looking to "eek" that last extra bit of life out of both my Electrocompaniet EMC-1UP cd player as well as my First Sound Presence Deluxe Mk II preamp.

I have both units currently on a Zoethecus rack, on the z.Slab. I have also heard many positive rumblings about the Neuance shelf and have the following questions:

Has anyone used either component on the Neuance shelf?

Also, has anyone compared the Neuance shelf versus the Zoethecus z.Slab?

Any and all comments would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you.

All the reference Zoethecus shelves are now replaced by Neuance shelves in my rig.

Zoethecus shelves do *air thing* well but lack in speed and opening up dynamics compared to Nueance shelves.

Aftermarket shelves should work well under your tubed pre.
