placette vs sonic euphoria

I owned both, and preferred the Sonic Euphoria in a back to back comparison.

I've owned a Placette and have heard a Sonic Euphoria in my system. I can't say which sounds better all things being equal, but the Placette active unit (the pricey one) should absolutely work with any source and any amplifier. The Sonic Euphoria's autoformers are more fussy. It did not sound good at all with my CD player. With passive devices, things need to be well matched.

I own both. Since passive works well in my tube and SS systems I have no issues as mentioned by Drubin.
They are both excellent, however I prefer the looks, style, remote control, and sonics of the Sonic Euphoria. Both owners have excellent customer service.
Best regards...
