Any experience with the new EMM CDSA SE ?

Anyone compare the the EMM Separates?? Is there is a difference in sound? I am curious as to CD & to SACD if there is a difference between the EMM Separates SE verision & the One box.

Dgad...surely there are none. Only diff is with DCC2 u get preamp functionality and with DAC 6 more multi channel inputs

Henryhk,

Too late. Spoke w. EMM. Each has a benefit & loss compared to the other. Hence balancing each other out. Lack of need for cables improves things on the CDSA. The separate power supplies is a benefit on the separates. Sonically there are people who prefer both. Me, I am now using the CDSA. Very nice, but needs time. I happen to like its musicality overall. Still Vinyl rules. Just more resolution. I will report back in a month or so when I know more.

I'd be more interested in this player if it had digital inputs.

Now there is the reason for the price difference between the 1 box & separates. No matter as SACD is its strong suit above all and no SACD has a digital out that is not exclusive to themselves.

I heard the 70K DCS setup. Very good but what you get from EMM is close enough. Obviously 2 separate systems, but compared both to Vinyl & vinyl is better to my ears.
