emmlabs cdsa-se vs esoteric 05


I have the emmlabs cdsa for a couple years and enjoyed the precise sound. I am looking for current technology and a cdplayer that would be an upgrade. The esoteric 05 is in the right price range. Playback designs is also on list.
Anyone familiar with these sounds?

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.
