emm Labs CDSA SE CD player

Hello all,
The EMM Labs CDSA SE CD Player is new to market and I was wondering if anyone has heard this player or seen any reviews of it (TAS hint, hint).

This player uses the same discrete dual differential DAC & MDAT processor as the fabulous DAC6e SE - but I don't see much info as far as jitter stabilization and built-in transport quality.

An advertisement from Music Direct discusses this unit without really reviewing it but it looks tempting!

EMM Labs is sending the unit, probably this week, to TAS. I'll let you know about it when it arrives and we've had a chance to set it up.

HP has the Meitner and I heard it in Sea Cliff (he also has the Meitner MC SACD rig). Very high resolution. Too high? HP will comment in TAS in a while.

I would also check out the Esoteric players (I'm testing the DV-60 and it is very nice and includes MC capability).

I recently bought a EMM CDSA player.
I installed it 3 days ago and although the appliance is not broken in the results are really good.
I dont remember my system ever sounding that good.

Issue 174 of TAS has my article on CD players which includes my comments on the Meitner. In a word: outstanding.
