| dCS vs. Dodson DACs I am delighted with my SCD-1 running into a Dodson "D". I have no reason to upgrade until DcS comes out with their SACD transport. Even then, the price differential may make it not worth it. David | |

| Who R U? My turn. I'm a 44 y/o man who could stand to lose a few pounds. Boy do I fit into a group. I am an orthpedic surgeon specializing in spinal surgery. I have invented a couple of implants which has helped fuel a newfound passion for music and an old... | |

| The BEST system you've ever built !!!! Thses systems are alwys changing. I just added a Rowland Coherence -II preamp to go along with the Theta HT processor that just came. David | |
| Cello, Rowland, Pass, OR Accuphase? I believe that cello has or will soon go out of business. Witness the large amount of gear that is now flooding Audiogon. David |
