Electrocompaniet EMC-1 24/192...Where to from here

I would do a search but it does not appear that they have closed their doors. As I understand it they have been reorganized and bought by someone with substantial resources so that you may not need to sell after all. This is always your least expensive option. Hope I am not giving you incorrect information but this is what I had heard talking to one distributor of gear. Good luck

Hi Barrelchief,

I think at this point the differences are subtle. I had a emc-1 and it was an excellent performer. I wouldn't worry about it. I bought a modified exemplar dvd player. The reason was due to simplifying, and also i needed video.

Check out electrocompaniets web site...there is a press release...the company is under new ownership and already has new products in the works...no problems with repairs either as it reads.

I owned an EMC-1UP for about two years and really enjoyed it and it worked perfectly. I had some extra funds and since my system only had one source I decided to sell my VK50SE preamp and EMC and try the direct route. I purchased the Audio Aero Capitol 2 and could not be happier. The sound is much more liquid, very analog sounding which is what I was looking for. I think the Capitol is a much better sounding player in my system, but it also costs more. I also had the Wadia 861 in the system as well and although the Wadia was good---great detail, I thought once again the capitol had a more analog sound and a much better sound stage.
