Playback designs followup?


There was a flurry of impressions when this player first came out, all of which was very favourable. I would really like to hear from the original users and others who are very familiar with this player about their impressions about its sound.
For the lucky owners, is it still as spectacular as initial impressions suggested or maybe even better with ongoing use??
Thanks

Gerrye123: Quite the cynic! Have you ever even heard the combination? There is, in fact, a strong synergy between at least three of these components, due to the fact that the MM3s were primarily voiced with the DarTZeel amp and pre-amp. And, of course, the DarTZeel pre-amp utilized the NHB-108 as an integral element in it's design and voicing.

Think of it as genetic engineering. Inbreeding is something entirely different and certainly not complimentary.

I used to own the top of the line marantz 7a-s1 and it was broken in and it pales in comparison to the emm labs and the playback. I sold the marantz to get the playback and it likes going from a toyota camry to a Porsche.
