Esoteric . . . your thoughts please


Does anyone have any experience with the Esoteric P-05/D-05 combination?

I was also wondering about others' experience with different Esoteric products. I am considering trading a McIntosh Mcd301 for an Esoteric unit, in an effort to obtain better build quality and superior sound reproduction. Any insights would be appreciated. I am aware that Esoteric has a newly released D-07, which has more digital inputs than the D-05. Eventually, I want to include a computer server into my two channel system. But my primary interest is in having the best sounding two channel system playing cds. The P-05/D-05 combination is priced at the maximum dollar amount I would be willing to spend.

Thanks for your thoughts.

I'm full computer audio. . .Mac Pro with Lynx AES16e card. Lynx and D-05 both clocked by the G-03X.
As the one who started this thread, I just wanted to thank everyone for their comments. I brought home a P-05 / D-05 combo over the weekend, and I don't think it will be going back to the store anytime soon.

Enjoy your music.
Congratulations Thefirstchorus! Keeps us posted on the evolution of its sound during break in. . . and be patient and steadfast with it. . . Esoteric gear does not make for easy instant gratification. . . but the end result is pretty glorious! G.  
which is better sonically: D-05 or D-07? The later one has more "modern" DAC but I don;t know and wonder if anyone listen both?

Thanks
