SACDs produced from DSD are so much better than CDs on a speaker like the ETs that we are talking about a whole new universe. I've listened to a lot of stuff and little comes close. The only other reproduction similar to it was a Mobile Fidelity LP through big tube amps on very large Acoustats. The ET's can not match the enveloping effect of the Acoustats, but all the other attributes of smoothness and natural reporduction are there.Jeff's approach could be related to a reproduction of a painting. The reproduction is missing something so he proposes to look at it through frosted glass rather than seek out the original.
I chose to follow a different path.
