The current state of the art is the EMM Labs equipment. My customers have gotten rid of the following in favor of the EMM Labs:
Accuphase DP75v
Accuphase 100 / 101
Audio Note DAC 3.1x Balanced / Spectral SDR3000SL
dcs Elgar/Verdi/Purcell
Levinson 31.5 / 30.6
Wadia 27ix / 270
Zanden Model 5000 MK II
There are so many more that I have not listed.
The ML combo was state of the art for quite a while, but the technology is quite behind a number of current products.
