emmlabs cdsa-se vs esoteric 05

so why don't you tell me what you think is subpar with my system?

Stereo5,
If you're happy with your system I wouldn't be concerned with what Kevinkwann or anyone else thinks. Someone passing judgment without hearing the system is shallow and rude. If you read other posts by him you'll realize he often negatively comments on the systems of others but ironically doesn't post his audio system. It's not worth the bother, enjoy what you have.
Charles,

Thanks Charles. I am perfectly fine with my system and enjoy it immensely. So Kevinkwann, why don't you tell me about your UN-subpar system so I can gush accordingly.

"I am perfectly fine with my system..."

Yet presumably in it the CDSA was "bright." If so, you have system issues. If not, your comments are merely irresponsible.

Kevinkwann........

You are evading the question as to what your system comprises of. Come on now, we all want to gush over it.
