Wich high end CD palyer?

for the Money the Accustic arts new mk-2 player is excellent which is about 6500.00
if you have a 2x that to spend the Accustic arts transport and Mk-3 dac at around 11k is superior to anything at 2x the price ,and that is a fact .myself and a few audiophiles have tested from Teacs , to Reiymyo.
In resolution and musicality it was superbas well as superb balance ! It is funny I read the review in http://www.dagogo.com/AccusticArtsDriveI-DACIMk3.html
and after reading what I thought was hype ,was fact.
This sytem will give many very good turntables fits for the many things it does better.

maybe I'm wrong, but i think how people who can get 12.000 euros of spare cash on CD player alone are not visiting any forum. they either don't have enough time for this because they're making money, and at the same time they don't have enough time to listening music, let alone asking questions about upgrades.

so, you're on your own, rich boy!

if i get that kind of money, i will know what to do: call some high end dealer, tell him my musical tastes (i'm busy making money, you know), let him to setup things, and slap him in the face with my 10.000 dollars smoking pipe if i'm not satisfied with system performance....

IMO, ALOIA 11.01 CDP from Italy makes for a crazy good transport ($2500)- combine that with a SCOTT NIXON DAC and you're set...... good luck, brent

From what I understand you should listen to the new Esoteric UX-1 Limited edition, their audio only unit.
