About the EMM Labs DAC


It seems that the EMM Labs DAC only can achieve optimal performance in conjunction with the proprietary Philips or Meitner transport. Does anyone know what might be the reason for this synergy? To me the Philips transport is just another mass production unit with quite an ordinary built quality. But where lies the secret? Is it due to another clock, D/A-converter chip or digital filter? If the Meitner modification is truly an improvement, why can it not be applied to other transports?

hello any DAC 6 owners planning on selling their DAC 6 when their DCC 2 arrives? If so I am looking for the DAC 6 and the modified Philips 1000 transport combination for purchase
Haven't heard the Steve Huntly modified wadia or the EMM combination wondering has anyone compared the great northern sound modified wadia 27ix and 270 or 270 se transport directly to the EMM Labs combination?
is any rack really worth $8000? I find hard to believe people will actually pay this for a rack
