Is EAD still relevant


I have an Ovation, and just curious about opinions on whether or not they are still considered a quality component and worthy of upgrade or just start new? I am looking at Marantz reference.

Gentlemen,

it is great to hear you guys are still emjoying this brand.
I did not think it was operational any longer? In fact, I had a service center- Boelen Electronics- that I heard was either non-operational or out of business?

Again, enjoy the EAD products. Keep me posted & Happy Listening!
Greg Palma, of the original EAD, has "Noble electronics" and they service the EAD and have many wonderful mods for the units.
I have heard from more than one source that the EAD DSP9000 series are the real deal, and that they are up there with the best ever for the playback of standard redbook CDs (no hi-res support.)
