TEAC Esoteric X-01 SACD/CD Player

Ilive in Cornwall,England,and I have the UX1,I purchased it from Hong kong for a very reasonable price and wonderfull servie.T he player is outstanding in all departments and it looks great too.I personaly consider it to be the best cd player I have ever heard,and I have had Levinson and Linn but this beats them hands down.Buy one you wont be sorry

I have recently auditioned Esoteric X-01, Bel Canto PL-1A and Burmester 001. X-01 was by far the best of the 3 and Burmester far the worse. My detailed findings are discussed in the following thred:

I did take a listen to the dv-50 at Experiance Audio in Seattle last weakend for about a hour. Tim has it paired up with a Anesextic Rhea, Plintus sa-102,Verity Parsifal Encore, I think Elrods on the power cords (I could be wrong), Interconents ?. With this combo I must say it sounded very nice, good soundstage, depth and detail I only heard a redbook cd not a sacd in it. I would certainly give it a listen,I would like to hear the X-01 but for that coin they are asking for the X-01 I would really give the Meitner, Audiomeca, DCS a serious listen.
