Electrocompaniet EMC1 vs. Shanling T200 Lvl 1 Mod


I am considering these two players and would like advice from anyone who has heard both. I must admit the attraction to the Shanling is mostly appearance, however Chris Johnson of the Parts Connexion is offering an extensive modification to the player that is claimed to be nothing shy of fabulous. Any input greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Thank you for all the input. I should have clarified this will primarily be for REDBOOK CD's as I own several hundreds of them and no SACDs. I do not plan on repurchasing old cd's on SACD format either. Just looking for the best redbook cd player at this time. I suppose I should ask between these three... I am leaning in this order

1. Electrocompaniet EMC1UP 24/192
2. Shanling T-200 w/ Level 1 Modification
3. Shanling T-100 w/ Level 1 Modification

Anyone that has both units, could you perhaps expand on your perceived differences between the EMC and whichever shanling you have, as well as if it is modified or not? Sincere thanks.

Regards,
Kirk
