Will Audio Logic DAC improve EMC-1?

I compared both in my system using either a Sony SCD-777ES CDP or modded Shanling T-100 as transports. I was also using the updated version of the AL DAC. To my ears the AL DAC was more to my taste but the Electro DAC throws a very wide soundstage, the widest I have heard in the price range. As far as the AL being better to my ears, it is not substancial meaing 50% better. I personally thought the Chord 64 DAC was better (clearer sounding) than both but I was not able to roll the tubes in the AL.

Happy Listening.

Yes 2400 but there was not a 25% improvement just slightly different flavor of sound the Chord being slightly more dynamic and clearer with better separation of instruments than the AL. The Electro DAC is a great value for the money an improved my stock Sony SCD-777ES and even the modded Shanling that I have. I preferred the Electro to the Audiomeca Mephisto II.X CDP even using it as a transport. The differences are only there in a side by side comparison and Russ will know if tube rolling will make a difference in the AL. I was looking for more of a tube sound from the stock AL but it was not lush sounding as I know tubes can be, good or bad I am looking for a moer lush sound.
