Hi Ken,
I would personally tell you that EMC1 24/192 can perfectly pair up with AL 24MXL. The sound of EMC1 has much more dynamic bass (without muddy bottom), clean, clear, decay of every notes and seperation when pairing with AL 24MXL(yes, it is the new version)especially when rolling with Siemens Halske CCa 6922s. I would say there is an absolute perfect music you can listen to. Check it out and you will see the difference of EMC1's sound with and without AL 24MXL. I did try EMC1 with Stellavox DAC(lower version of Golmund Mimesis 21 DAC). But EMC1+Stellavox can not definitely beat EMC1+ AL 24MXL.
