What the heck is Resolution Audio


two people keep bringing up Resolution Audio cd players in posts. Does anyone else have any experience with them or even ever heard of them, or do we just have two company employees corupting Audiogon...

My CD50's output impedance is a VERY LOW 50 ohms single ended, and 100 ohms balanced. What linestage preamp has a lower output impedance that that???? It'll drive your long cable run. "It's the most POWERFUL CD player in the world, and will blow hour head clean off....You have to ask yourself one question...'Do I feel lucky'...Well, do ya, punk??"
WOW THAT WAS A LOT OF READING TO HEAR THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER......SAY I HAVE A TEAC SINGLE DISC PLAYER I BOUGHT ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO FOR $55.....IS THAT CLOSE TO WHAT YOU GUYS WERE TALKING ABOUT?
"What sort of work do you do?"...."Oh, I work with retards."...."And now, for the money shot"....etc. etc.
Just following the great deal of info on the Resolution Audio players. Has anyone compared them with the much less expensive Bel Canto Dac 1? Is there enough diff to justify the higher price?
The price is higher for the DAC-1, since you have to have a linestage that is as good as no linestage at all ($10,000+ ??), and you can get a CD50 used for a couple hundred more than the DAC-1 costs. According to Jeff Kalt at Resolution (who supposedly has been quoted in another thread "upsampling dacs...pepsi yada yada"), upsampling is just hogwash. I'm not sure I agree, but I know I'll be happy with my CD50 for a long time to come. Having an extrenal DAC would be nice to use with my DAT recordings, though.
