Just wanting to share my thoughts to my audiogon members. I'm thinking about selling my DV-50S player to purchase a Power conditioner(which I don't have) and another CD player for the same amount of money I get from the Esoteric (around 3,000 bucks). Currently I'm using the Esoteric for CD/SACD only, no video at all. My system currently consists of ....
Esoteric DV-50S Pass Labs X150.5 amp Pass Aleph P pre-amp Audes Blues Speakers Analysis Plus interconnects and speaker cables NO power Conditioning 2 20A dedicated circuits with oyaide SWO XXX outlets
So my question is can I get another CD player that will compare in sound with my current player and also purchase a Power conditioner for the money I get from the Esoteric DV-50S. Just wanted to add I'm very happy with my current system. Money is very tight right now. I thought a power conditioner was important to protect my system. I was leaning towards Audio Magic conditioners. (suggestions anyone?) Now for the CD/SACD player. Basically one with comparable sound as the Esoteric. Thanks Ziggy
I paid $1250 for my DV-50 player, well-cared condition. I concur with bdp24, if the Player must ship, at least double box. It is a BEAST! Keep me posted on your buying decision.
The Denon 3910 is an excellent Player from Japan. Only the 5910 betters it, not by much margin. I hope other DV-50 Owners chimes in to address your query.
