Has anyone had the $ 5k upgrade to their cdsa-se ?

Just wondering how close this comes to the top of the line 1box Meitner player .

But the xds1 removes even the last traces of digital chill and really improves performance on poorly mastered CDs and adds another level of analog-style relaxation. If you have the $$, the xds1 stops upgrade-itis permanently (for me it did).
