most analog sounding CDP

Hey Y'all,

If you can find it, listen to the Lector CDP-7T. I own this player and just read the review in The Absolute Sound. Every word the reviewer uttered about this CDP is true. I say this because I've experienced all of the things he discribes in the review, for myself, in my own system...........John

Tube technology from UK is the most analog sounding.
Lector is second best.
The rest is behind...

Musical Fidelity NuVista 3D CDP.

the CDP that sounds most like my tt (Rockport Sirius III) is the emmlabs DAC6/modified Philips SACD 1000. this combo upsamples redbook to dsd and not only matches any other cdp in detail.....but exceeds any other cdp in dynamics, naturalness, and fully formed soundstage. it's smoothness and ease don't come with any penalty......all other cdp's that have that level of smoothness do so by clouding the detail to some degree. others that match it's detail miss the naturalness.

my definition of analog-sounding is what i hear on my tt......which is the most detailed, dynamic, and natural musical reproduction i have heard.

Today, I am the proud owner of what I feel is the best CDP on the planet - the Harmonix-Reimyo CDP777. Out of the box, with no break in, it CRUSHED the Accuphase DP75v, Musical Fidelity Trivista, Audio Aero Capital, Wadia 27ix combo and DCS front end system. I have owned or audioned all of these players. These are all very good players in their own right. HOWEVER the Reimyo is in a new league altogether and without a doubt SOTA. It bests them all and not by a small margin. I am affiliated to nobody and this is for an audiophile FYI. If you can afford it - get it.
