should everyone just order emm?

I'm actually 34 years old, so if vinyl had a banwagon I wasn't even a sperm cell at the time. I like it because its the most realistic reproduction of music that I've heard. I've always noticed a digital edge on CD and SACD. I have a CD player as well because of the fact that software if most available in that format and I enjoy listening to it. I go with the best sound. So if EMM betters an equally priced TT set up I'm all for it.

I'm hearing from this thread that EMM is pretty much the best sounding CD DAC trasport and best SACD player out there which pretty much beats or matches any other format is that correct?

It's just that every year a bunch of hype surrounds a product and when the dust settles -- and it's just another quality product, but not something that changes the universe. That is usually what banwagon refers to. Please enlighten me.

I am sorry I have been inattentive to this thread. I suspect given the reviews that the Reimyo cd player at $14k playing only cds outperforms the Exemplar/Denon 2900. I also have been very impressed with the TEAC UX1 with the atomic clock. This combo costs $28k. I know of no other digital players that even come close to the new Siltech wired Exemplar at $4000.

Tbg: There was a shootout done with the Siltech Exemplar and the EMM Labs. Most people that attended do not share your opinion. They found it very nice sounding, but highly colored.

Jonathan, yes I heard, but the difference is where the majority lies.
