Electrocompaniet EMC-1up vs Primare cd35 (OLD vs NEW)

Did anyone have the opportunity to hear both of CD players and if so which one do you think it is better(and why)?

That transport is probably better than Primare's TEAC CD 5020A-AT, but I'm wondering if the SABRE ES9028PRO dac(in Primare) is better sounding than the Electro dac? And yes, I am interesting in pure cd playback...

Never heard the Primare.
