RE: BB PCM1704 and PCM1702...nuff said. (nt)

But it's how you define "higher performance" that matters here.
In this thread I have suggested that another poster find a Denon DCD-S10 II and have a listen. This suggestion is based upon many hours of happy listening to an audio friends system
This same person recently had a new "super" clock installed in the DCD-S10 II, and also had someone go through and upgrade all caps etc. I've heard this player twice since he got it home...the only way I can describe it is amazing!!
The same guy also owns an EMM Labs SACD/CD player that set him back quite a few bucks - it's getting no air time.
The Denon uses the PCM1702J...a lowly 20 bit DAC, but as musical as you'll find.
Is that "higher performance"?
