Is Exemplar the answer?
Tombowlus, you should listen to the Exemplar. 
Is Exemplar the answer?
Also, I recently cleaned the tubes and sockets within the Exemplar with the AudioTop contact cleaner. The improvement is at least of the magnitude of the use of Siltech wire. This stuff maybe from an alien culture given how much better it is than ... 
Is Exemplar the answer?
It really is more of a connection pop or snap, when the unit recognizes the type of disk. It is never there with the music.

Please don't say anything for at least a week and keep it running 24/7. 
RRL Cleaner, Vinyl Zyme, and Groove Glide
I expect they will find substantial sales resistance without a demonstration. For the vinyl and lp treatments this would be easy, but for the contact treatment it would be difficult.

smilin, I find it a common experience that components sound quite good initially only to loose their luster and sound poorly for some time. This is the case with the Exemplar also. I suspect it has to do with forming the capacitors and cables, but... 
RRL Cleaner, Vinyl Zyme, and Groove Glide
Granted the AudioTop Vinyl is expensive, but how would you react were it to make what you thought was a cleaned record sound incredibly better? I did not expect this great of an improvement despite the claims of the U.S. importer who I have known ...

Riddle me this: how is carbon a conductor?
Your carbon has low resistence? 
Riddle me this: how is carbon a conductor?

I have many CDRs. All play on the Denon. Actually, I have nothing that will not play on the Denon. 
Is Exemplar the answer?
For years we have been buying cars only to find that the next year's cars were improved. Computers were another example. I too would like to hear HDCDs as I heard them on the Lindemann, but hey they still sound very good on the Exemplar.I do wonde... 
EMM Labs CDSD / DCC2 - Initial Listening Session
Tireguy, I can understand that you might hear the comparison differently, but rest assured that I am not the only one hearing this. In my experience I know two others that had EMM gear that sold it for the Exemplar and several others that on heari...
