New digital front end

Earflappin, I thouhgt you had a pretty good understaning about the APL re-organisation/transiton so you were willing to wait till we resume taking orders in a couple of months from now. You were also going to visit Bob with your Linn CD12 and see how it does against his NWO-1. How that went?

BTW, did you read this? :

These might answer some of your questions.

Stenho,

I was just recommending to Jetusmc that he consider the original emmlabs CDSD/DCC2, now that many are on sale for a very good price. I am very familiar with these, as I have had them in my room for the last year, and don't think he will regret purchasing them if he can afford them and if the equipment is working properly. As for the value of considering the signature upgrades, time will tell.

Hope this clears things up.

Thom_y, Thanks for the response, and to all the other folks who have taken the time to post.

I am really torn between the Theta Gen VIII and the EMM combo.My dealer, for Theta, Tells me if I purchase the EMM combo I'll be back for the Gen VIII later--but he would say that wouldn't he!!

I am still curious if there is anyone who has compared the Theta to the EMM. Thanks in advance.
