I HAVE ONE AND AM VERY IMPRESSED. THESE UNITS BLOW AWAY MANY OTHERS COSTING MUCH,MUCH MORE.A FRIEND OF MINE HAS ONE ALSO.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
While i am not COMPLETELY sure of this, i think that these were repackaged ( what we call "badge engineering" ) versions of a Marantz player. Don't hold me to that, but that is what i was told by someone in the industry. Sean >
Sean: The E624 is the same basic player as the X-Ray and the A3 Musical Fidelity players, in a different package. It is a nice sounding player, but some owners have told me that it lacks bass. I thought so too when I listened to it, but may have been influenced by those opinions at the time (I was relatively new to the digital format). Also interesting is that the three players mentioned all sound different, though electronicaly they may be almost identical. I assume that the varied chassis and cosmetics must account for the different sonic signatures. It makes me want to play around with chassis and cabinet damping on my old CAL.
DEKAY,you are correct about the 3 being the same except for the uotside case.( cosmetics ). I believe the bass is all there and very accurate?
I have one in my MF collection, same electronics as X-Ray but sounds different as larger cabinet allows more spacious layout, most say it sounds better. I also have A3CD and belive it is better than E624, even though most components are the same there is a difference. E624 has digital 24/96 output so good to use as transport for the many excellent $1000 or less DACs now available.
