Theduker, I had the Exemplar/Denon 2900 as well as the 3910 and 5910. My favorite was the final version of the 3910. I don't recall ever thinking that any of these were too forward, but I don't like EMF cloth as it closes down the sound.
I would strong recommend that you get a listen to the new Exemplar/Oppo 105 with the FineMet beads. You haven't heard digital until then.
