I have both a Compli and a GenVIII. I am very satisifed with both. This combo killed my former Cary rig (306/200 and slp2002 preamp). Remember that GenVIII is not only an outstanding DAC, but also an incredible good preamp.
Since Theta still hasn't come up with any solution for digital highrez output, I guess there now are dedicated SACD players, maybe like the new Cary, that beat the Compli on SACD.
It would have been interesting to hear the Cary 306 SACD through the balanced analog inputs on the GENVIII.
