Dear fellows.I would like to make an upgrade from my Krell Kav 300 cd player to a modern cd player that could be used as transport as well.Emotiva offers at a very affordable price the Emotiva ERC 3 cd player?could it beat my old Krell kav 300cd?In which level of sound do you situate this cd player?Is this Emotiva a solid hi end cdplayer or may be entry level or hi Fi? Any experiences will be highly appreciated.Thank´s in advance!Cheers.Raf

Hi Zd542!So which transport of the ninties would you recommend me, taking into consideration that I'll be using it with an EAD Dsp 9000 Pro and an ARC D 200 amp?Thanks for your suggestion!Regards!Raf
The ERC3 only sounds rolled off when compared to its predecessor which is too bright. It sounds every bit as perfectly balanced as my Onkyo C7000R which is saying a lot if anyone’s ever heard it on a good hi-end system. Just not as smooth and refined. I agree the ERC3 is as good as any player out there under $1K.
ERC-3 is outstanding (in fact, I'll go as far as to say it cannot be beat) at its price point, regardless of whether or not your intention is to use it as a player or transport.
