Do you really think the PO2/DO2 can outperform your PO1/DO1? MOst dealers think not and that the PO1, though old still betters the new cheaper models. I have heard the Stahl teck and whilst nice, found nothing special about it. Soulution's 745 is fantastic but oh so expensive! YOu should check out the Zanden Cd stack (separates). They really sound analogue and make the stahl teck sound very digital I have ABed them directly on several occassions and the difference is marked. Meanwhile my 808.3 remains my player of choice howie |

howie,
no, not at all. i only found the p-02/d-02 slighlty more resolving then my current stack of p-01/d-01vu, but not enough to sway me away from it. the stahl-tek is very nice, imho, but will not play sacd which i have invested in quite heavily. i don't believe that the zanden plays sacd either. but it is very nice sounding, no doubt. the soulution or the dcs are currently my top picks for a possible replacement of my p-01/d-01 vu stack.... |

Hi ozy, Have you had any listen on the CH Precision C1 & D1? Understand from my local dealer that a few owners of the full DCS Scad 4 tiers system sworn by the CH combo and have since traded in their full DCS. Rags |

I would say the EMM LABS XDS1 SACD player is a nice contender.

Give a listening to the Burmester 069 with PSU Reference Line. I compared side by side it with the 4 stacks dcs scarlatti and I prefer the German player.

grazie rocco- the burester gear always wooed me, but it doesn't appear to have a usa distribution any longer?(please correct me if i'm mistaken on this?) so not too sure how and where to get an audition. i'm sure it is sensational.

Ivan has just become Burmester dealer! So I guess distribution in the US won't be a problem...
