| Electrocompaniet EMC 1-UP pre-amp I see that this company also makes an SACD player...I wonder how it sounds? When you say the EMC-1UP is a little rolled off on top, is it very noticeable or is it more subtle? | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC 1-UP pre-amp Thank you to everyone for the their feedback. I mixed up the model numbers as I was trying to type this while also taking calls for work (on a Monday no less...). I have seen a number of references to the high-quality sound produced by the CDP (mo... | |
