The 657 is a fantastic CD player, surpassing a Bybee modded Sony SCD-777ES SACD in my system, that is, comparing
CDs on the 657 vs SACD on the Sony player.

Granite Audio Model 657 Tube CD Player
On Granite Audio's web site, it reads "Enjoy SACD sound quality from your existing Red Book CD library." http://www.graniteaudio.com/cd/
I have a rather large collection of standard "Red Book" CD's and have not jumped into DVD-A or SACD.
I have been very happy with my current Electrocompaniet EMC-1 (24/192, not the UP/SE version)
However, if a more musical experience can be squeezed out of my CD's, I'd like to push it ot the max, without having to break the bank.
Does anyone have experience with this CDP, especially in comparrison to my Electro?
Does this player hold up to its claim of red book performance that is comperable to SACD?
Thanks
