Ayre CDX-7eMP or Electrocompaniet EMC-1UP

I currently have the Ayre CDX-7eMP in my system. I have been looking at the Electrocompaniet EMC-1UP. Is this a sideways move?
The rest of my system consists of Aesthetix Calypso pre, Bel Canto 500 REFm mono's and Usher 8571 speakers. Look forward to your opinions.
Thanks

I had a EMC 1UP for a few years and really enjoyed it. I replaced it with a entry level Esoteric sacd player. The change was a nice upgrade in soundstage and resolution on redbook plus it played sacds!
The Electro is still fondly remembered for its very natural analog sound.

Hi Montejay,
How are you?
Have you read the Frankenstein review in the december issue of TAS?
Did you ever try the Takatsuki 300b with your amps?
It`s a premium tube for a premium SET amp like the Frankenstein.
Regards,
Charles.
