I really appreciate your input. First let me say that I have the settings exactly as you recommend. I had gotten this Esoteric with the thought of selling the SCD-1 to finance a new cartridge for my TT, but was surprised at what we heard. I had been hoping to hear what you seem to get from your DVC-60.
I have a number of duplicate CDs so that we could put one copy of a CD in the DV-60 and one in the SCD-1. We then started one about 10 seconds before the other so that we could hear the same music on both just seconds apart. I use a Parasound JC-2, JC-1s, Soliloquy 6.5 speakers and all the cables my company makes along with the power cords and power conditioners. Let me add that I was not biased in any way as to the outcome. as a matter a fact if there was a prejudice, it was towards the Esoteric, its reputation preceding it.
