Anyone connected Muse 11 directly to Amps


I AM LOOKING INTO A HI END DVD -A/SACD PLAYERAND FOUND MUSE OFFERS ONE THAT YOU CAN CONNECT DIRECTLY TO THE AMP.I WAS WONDERING ABOUT THE SOUND AND I TAKE IT THAT IT WOULD ELIMINATE USING A PROCESSOR.I ALSO SEE THAT MSB OFFERS A UNIT LIKE THIS TOO.IS THIS THE WAVE OF THE FUTURE.
DO THESE UNITS ADDRESS BASS MANAGEMENT AND DO YOU STILL NEED SOME SORT OF AUDIO PROCESSOR.

Muse Model 10 into Aesthetix Calypso tube pre far surpasses the "vaiable out" direct feed option that I had "intellectually" convinced myself could not be beat. Then I listended with my ears. I will never go back.

Oh, yes, I owned the Model 11, also. The Model 10 destroys it...not subtle.

This thread is rather old so I hope you're looking in. Interesting comment regarding the Model 11 vs Model 10 sonic differences. Could you elaborate? I'm facing such a choice. I want to play CD/CDR/DVD-A/MP3 and maybe SACD but I'm not sold on SACD. The highs don't sound right to me.

Saying that the thread is rather old only a year after the first post? Well, how about to bump it up after 15 years?)

I have Muse Model Eleven with installed input module and quite happy with it's performance. However recently, playing with its remote, I somehow was able to switch it to the mode (I think so), where it plays only SACD as a full player. It plays CD, when I'm using it as a transport, but sends no sound, when I'm using it as a plyer, despite it recognizing CDs and showing all the playing info on the display. 

I'm really frustrated as I tried all of the settings from the TV Menu, read all Instruction, tried all combinations on remote, but still can't get it to work with CD!

Will be extremely appreciated for any possible help!
