Fr something WAY below your "looking" price of $5K but matching the sonic description that you mentioned, try contacting Ric at EVS. Ask him about the Millennium II upsampler that he sells direct for $1050. Music Direct told me that this piece would sell for at least $4K if it was sold by dealers. It uses some of the finest components that money can buy without the massive dealer mark-up or manufacturer advertising expenses tacked on. It sounds very "see through", in terms of detail but COMPLETELY lacks grain, glare or any of the digital nasties that one thinks of. If the price is TOO CHEAP for you, Ric could even build a custom piece a few steps higher up the ladder. Sean
