the best CD player between 6'000 - 10'000 $ ?

True, I carry no "glitchy" products. Fail, I've seen your site as well.

Arg, there certainly isn't another company following EMM in the reliability (LACK OF) department. Wadia might be the name eluding you?

The CDSA is the one they are having trouble with. Look in the forums, it is a real problem.

"Glitchy" is OK at 11500? Your machine is not glitchy, it is defective. Are you under warranty?

Fail, I do beleive I provide the best buy for my clients.
Dgad, there is nothing wrong with a buffer. The load to play times you describe are normal. You talked about a tray door. Unless I am confusing you with yet another unhappy EMM owner? Keep watching my site for new and exciting products! I am a Krell owner and prefer not to do the Show and Tell thing. The retail value of the cabling alone exceeds the value of most members' systems. Most folks are well aware of current Krell retails. I have two pieces Signed by Mr. D'Agostino himself. Wouldn't that be a bit self serving to show off something like that?

Are you kidding me? They used to send me new SACD Standards before I sent the broken one(s) back! I had three in my foyer at one time! They finally comped me an EVO. I have a couple of unwavering opinions: the stuff has to work to sound good, and the product needs to sound as good as it costs. The gear I "dis" doesn't meet that criteria, IMO. I have an advantage to access to way more gear than most members here. It is very interesting to note the difference between mfgrs that beg for me to carry their line and the lines I have to ask or qualify for.....

Baranyi, Finally someone with a sense of humor! I guess this means I have to apologize too. Cerrot, I think you would be very suprized to know how many members hide their industry affiliation. Tvad posted my website, not I.

I still think my comment about the most modded line on the planet does not qualify as disparagement. I think it would be pretty easy to verify. I don't sell on agon the current product of anything I sell as so many here do. Most products I represent have a ZERO internet sales policy.
When I read a post about a 6000 dollar Cary outperforming a 12500 dollar Esoteric as described in the APL post, it is I who question any dealer not trying to provide the highest value to performing products. I'm in it for the long run, and as I have said many times I care a great deal about this community.

As Tvad says, client loyalty is earned. He also advertised to more people for me than I ever have! My business grows from word of mouth. Referals from Architects, General Contractors, clients, and more and more often from the principals of products I carry. I carry several competing products/brands...
Again Cerrot, I'll wager you are talking with a dealer more often than not. I don't think you will find an offer to sell in a single response of mine... I offer my opinion and experience that I hope the reader takes to his dealer.
