Emm Labs CDSA 'X' upgrade


UK distributor mentioned an 'X' upgrade was going to be available soon for $5000 but hasn't got back with details. Anyone know anymore about the upgrade?

had the upgrade done. put it into my system last night and without warm up WOW!! 3D
Thanks, look forward to hearing more. What I'd really like to hear is whether or not digital inputs can be accomodated as per the XDS. Fingers crossed.

Answer, NO dig inputs. Just a Digital out
It isn't on their site. I am a pest and have been emailing every few months asking if they would be offering an upgrade with their newly designed Analog board. I never got a "yes" but did gets hints of an upgrade so I kept on emailing. The mod is moving the clock to the digital pcb and adding a new Analog pcb. What words due I use? My wife heard the difference from the next room. To keep it simple, closer to Vinyl. Less digital, the instruments sound 3D. Huge soundstage. I didn't think my system could sound better but it does.

About 90% of the 25K model. less the Esoteric Drive and the new green power supply. Audibly, I was told 90% by an employee that would know. I can say it does sound "GREAT." I loved the CDSA SE but the X is superior.
