Esoteric DV-50s,X-03 Vs Musical Fidelity Trivista


I currently own a Musical Fidelity Trivista SACD/CD Player. It has become my Reference player after trying a few others like the Sony SCD-1, Marantz Sa11S1, Sony SCD-XA777ES, Sony SCD-XA9000ES, Rotel RCD991 AE,Denon DCD SA-10,Shanling SCD T-200 and the Marantz SA-1. Although some of these players hold their own characteristic in music I have found that the Musical Fidelity Trivista Player is one of the most complete SACD/CD Players around in music reproduction. Not just for SACD playing but as well as for Redbook Cds. I am considering trying the Esoteric line to see how it compares to my Trivista and I will like to know if there is anyone who has heard both units and can share their experiences with both units. I know that the DV-50s is also a Universal DVD player but I have read that it is also an Outstanding SACD/CD Player.I also understand that every player will have the tendency of sounding different from one system to another due to cables,amplifiers,Interconnects and Preamp/Processors used but I just want to have an overall idea of what people think about both units.
Your comments will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much,

Carlos.

There is one player who is superior to all these players. Listen to a Meridian 808i or the latest Meridian 800 dax v4. Listen and you understand why it is that much better. I know the Tri-Vista very well. I sold 3 of there players, I recently heard the Esoteric X-O1. We compared it with the Meridian 808. The Meridian was playing in an other leage. I hope you have a change to listen to it. When you can, bring your own player with you. You will be impressed.
I've been usng the Audio Aero Capitole mk2 with SE upgrade for the past year or so. Recently I auditioned the Esoteric X-03 with my current system. I found the X-03 more textured with better octave to ovtave performance. As much as I liked the AA, the Esoteric was the better perfomer in my system. I'll be sending the X-03 to Esoteric to receive the SE upgrade next week.
