Suteetat,

Thanks for the well thought out response to my posting. I think that the PD and the XDS1 are both great machines but that they will appeal to different buyers. Likewise, the choice may in the end be somewhat system dependent. A lengthy review of the XDS1 will soon appear in www.dagogo.com.

Rilou,

'leading advertising'....not sure i get your meaning.

i am guilty of neglecting to update my system page as far as all the details, here and on audioasylum for a few years, sorry. i've had the Playback Designs MPS-5 (and the EMM Labs has been gone) since the summer of 2006 (or 2007?....i did get a very early PD) as i recall.

there always seems to be something more important to do....like listen to music.....spend time with my wife....etc.etc.

i promise to 'intend' to update it soon. don't hold your breath....

if you read my posts on my system page they tell the story of my system progress over time. there are a few of them to get through however.

best regards,

Mike, Thanks for the reply, everything is clear with this answer, I could not get the chance to directly compare the emm XDS1 and Playback Designs.
I already have the Emm DCC2 SE and SE CDSD I already sold.

Thank you for trying to convince me with the values of the device you recommend me to purchase such as PD. WHY ?.

Thanks.

Thank you for trying to convince me with the values of the device you recommend me to purchase such as PD. WHY ?.

again; i'm not sure what you are asking but i will try to respond.

WHY?

why do i write about the Playback Designs? it's what we do here. we talk about our experiences. particularly when someone (in this case you) asks a question.

why do i try and convince you? i don't look at it that way; i'm sharing my perspective, not intending to convince or not to convince. i have no 'agenda' other than to enjoy the community of fellow audiophiles.

did that answer your question? if not, please ask your question in more detail.
