accuphase 75 vs. electrocompaniet mk11

I am currently using a Conrad Johnson MF 2300 amp; Conrad Johnson pv12 pre-amp; Linn Basik turntable; Thiel 3.6 speakers. My current cd player that i am looking to upgrade is the Meridian 506.20.

thanks again in advance for the advise.

dkonstruction: tho i'm a well-known fan of accuphase, i think you'd be better served with the electrocompaniet. the dp-75 is outmoded technology, having been replaced by the 75v in mid-1999. the electro. is one of the very best cdp's i've heard in its price range, and beyond. -cfb

We have had the Accuphase in house when we did a shootout among some of the great players like the Audio Aero, Linn, Eclipse, Audio Meca Mephisto 2, Wadia and EMC 1 with upgrade We tried to get the new Accupahse but no one in this area had one.
As great as the old Accuphase was the new players were all better. Go with a 24/192 upsampling player and you will be very pleased. The EMC 1 with upgrade is a great player. There is no EMC 2 it is what people are calling the upgraded player.

Cornfedboy: How would you compare the Electrocompaniet (with upgrade) with the Accuphase DP-75v? Would you purchase a used 75v or a new Electro? Mike
