Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

Re: He never mentioned his budget...

Well, he did mention dCS in his first post and he asked about the Meitner gear above. The dCS stack (Verdi transport, Purcell upsampler, Elgar Plus DAC) goes for about $35k list and if you add the Verona master clock it's over $40k. The Meitner CDSD and DCC2 together are about $20k list and the DCC2 is also a reference quality pre-amp. Even if the guy never touches a single SACD, he will still be buying a Redbook source and pre-amp that compete with anything out there.

Whether or not it's a very poor investment to spend $20k for a digital source and pre-amp is something I can't comment on because it's way out of my price range.
