Tried it in my system and found it to be very good. I felt it had excellent detail (in keeping with the brand), great soundstage and very clean deep and detailed bass. It was musically engaging and had just enough warmth for my taste. I think it is similar to the X03 which is a wonderful player. All CD players can give trouble (more than other audio components) but Esoteric is amongst the most reliable, in my opinion.

Anyonme have first hand experience with this player? I read the reviews but would like to hear from anyone who has actually heard and used the player.
