EMM OWNERS Poll - What hangs off YOUR DAC?
I have the emmlabs gear and used to have the nordost valhalla but have now switched to the purist dominus interconnect and it is a wonderful improvement.Owl is right that the dominus emmlabs combination is magical. I am surprised that Owl was even... 
Anybody tried 20th Anniversary Purist cables?

What Is Best Monoblocks For Around $10,000 Used?
Semi,Maybe you should read George's post. He asked specifically about the pass x600. I gave him MY OPINION about the pass x600. No I have not tried their latest and greatest but then George asked about the x600 not the x600.5. The x600.5 are over ...
