      Just when I think I'm getting somewhere with my system, I have to see something like that.

          :LOL:

          That's just his summer system I hear. hahaha.

          Can you imagine speakers that weigh close to 600 pounds each!?! From what I hear, the stands cost like 5K. But how do you get them on the stands and get the speakers back upright? I can't imagine handling anything that heavy that I didn't want to beat and bang around.

            Several REALLY strong guys wearing velvet gloves. That's how. And you keep 'em around for a couple of days to help you position the speakers correctly, too! I didn't add it up officially, but this guy's got what? $200,000 US sitting there?

                    Oh, I think it's pretty evident this person can afford whatever he wants, so the use of the Emmlabs modified Phillips SACD unit is very likely due to preference.

                      The EMM Labs-modified Philips SACD 1000, in conjunction with the EMM Labs DAC6, is currently considered by many to be the best SACD available, period. This may change in a few months when EMM Labs releases its own transport.

                      I hope to demo the EMM Labs SACD system in the next week or so, at GTT Audio in NJ.

                      Regards,

                      Larry

                      P.S. IMO, the top-of-the-line dCS SACD gear is mechanical sounding. For what it's worth, quite a few people share this feeling.

                          Another shot of his speakers. Evidentally Kharma offers a "DIAMOND" tweeter upgrade. I can't tell from this shot if he spent the extra cash or not.
                          Ooops, I just found this quote from this (his) website.

                          There are 2 areas with potential for improvement: First, the metal tweeter sounds great in the Exquisites but would be better with the new Diamond tweeter upgrade (which is on order), second, if the room was 2 feet wider (not likely to change).

                              Ahhh. Here's the Diamond tweeter upgrade he is waiting for. Humph! POS! :x The Diamond tweeter upgrade brings the cost to $120K. But you can probably talk the delaer down a bit. :LOL:
