Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better?
My apologies smilin. I thought I had seen your first/last already posted elsewhere on this thread. Did not realize I had made a blunder. I have seen one instance where the system let me re-edit/modify a previous post, but can't find the option rig...

TJ, not only I was impressed by the findings in your review of the X350.5, but I was equally amazed by the consistency of all the positive comments of the other users following your excellent review. Nelson must truly have created something special!

Just spoke to Peter perkins at pass today and got an update on the upcoming X600.5. The engineering prototype device has now been making music for a while. According to Peter, the team at Pass is now auditioning what may very well be the final twe...
