Chord 64 dac or Tube Tech 64 vs. kora hermes

This is going to be a great thread considering there is still talk of the SACD tech as a option for superior sound resolution. More importantly if the new 64 bit tech is a hit among the audiofellows i may be able to get rid of my NAD cdp and pick up on one of ya'lls "old model" 96 bit electrocompaniet or such at a great price! Lucky me.

Jdlepera i've been advised GO SACD and GO A SUPERIOR 192 BIT. I'm very choosey on my classical cd performers, and with so few sacd'c available... And now with this new 64 bit tech throws a whole new twist. If you take a look at the thread Cary 306 vs. Electro. EMC1 R1b61 says he even perfers the 96 bit sound over the 192. The Cary has a 96/192 button that allows you to upsample if you wish. the EMC1 does not. My friend has a Cary 303/200 and on most cd's we can't tell difference when its 96 or 192. HawaiikiD as well agrees he prefers the tad bit warmer sound of the 96. He has a EMC1 which i assume is the MK1 96 model not the new MK11/192. Since the Kora Cosmos got the prize over the AR VTM200 i'm curious about this Hermes DAC. But i think its about $3K ,out my reach. My apologies Mr. Ebakrer2 for intruding on your thread for my selfish curiousity.
