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

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.

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.

I know Larry, I stole your post, lol. ops:

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).

Here is the Philips SACD 1000 upgrade manual from the Emmlabs site.

Have at it fellas! Let me know how it turns out.

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:
