Correction to Bryston SP-1 auction above
I auction here every now and then and I don't think you can actually change what you post as the retail price of the unit. I think you can only add something, in which case where the seller can add that the retail price posted was Canadian dollar ...

Electrocompaniet EMC-l or Meridial 508-2
I don't think that Meridian 508.24 is even close.Anybody have an idea when that upsampling upgrade will be available for the EMC-1. 
Anthem AVM2 or B K Reference 30
Thanks a lot for the response guys.I was told that the popping noise on the B&K ref 20 was on the earlier versions only. I made my decision and ordered the Reference 30, the base management and the ability to upgrade sealed my decision. 
Confused By A Transport Upgrade
I used to have the first Bel Canto Dac 1 and from memmory I remember that it sounds close to the warm and smooth side like somebody mentioned above. Partnered with a Theta Pearl transport and Sim Audio which also sounds towards the same warm and s... 
Quattro Fil vs. Siltech SQ80b
I used to have the Quattro Fil and between my pre and power amp before and I just replaced it with the Siltech SQ88b and the performance of this new Siltech cable blew me away.Very dynamic with lots of air around instruments with a tight base to b... 
Sony ES777 SACD vs EMC-1
I used to have the Sony 777ES myself for 6 months also more than a year ago before I sold it and bought an EMC-1. To me the stock Sony's redbook capability didn't even come close to the EMC-1's performance in this area. The SACD is another story, ... 
Isolation Platform for CD Transport??
I have my EMC-1 sitting on Mapleshade tripple points (thanks to Brulee's recomendation)on top of a Zoethecus Z-pods.Sounds very neutral, best platform combo I have used so far. I will probably try the Neuance platform soon as I heard great things ... 
Linn Ikemi vs. Electro. EMC1 vs. 508.24
Thanks a lot Celery, well said.The Meridian sounded like an old CD player (and it is) compared to the EMC-1. 
Why are EMC-1 s being dumped on market?
I love my EMC-1 and I bought it without auditioning it beating out the Linn Ikemi which I initially wanted to buy before. What persuaded me to do that was because of what people here and at Audio Asylum said about it.It was one of the best decisio... 
Which Headphone Amp for Sennheiser 600?
Hi Mcne, on the X-cans II, just replaced the two tubes inside to your choice of 6dj8,6922 or 7308 NOS tubes of your choice.I prefered Amperex 7308 on mine.If you have questions on how to actually open it and replaced the tubes just email me. 
Which Headphone Amp for Sennheiser 600?
I'm using a Musical Fidelity X-Cans II on mine and it sounds great, just make sure that you upgrade the tubes.I used to only used them on my SF Line 2SE but a seperate amp really does make a difference.But if you really want a great headphone amp ... 
350 SACDs and Counting
Personally I got tired of waiting on who's going to win the format wars so I have been enjoying SACD for almost a year now.The way I look at it if you don't get into it now you may never get to it at all, as there's always a new thing that's going...
