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 .

Good SACDs on the EMM machine rival vinyl setups of similar value IMO. $5K for an "upgrade" of a $10K player (now available for under $5K used) is quite a lot of money, however.
