How naive was that. Twelve times around the block later here I am. The Dartzeels are the absolute finest electronics I have ever experienced. Period. The Coltranes are a full range speaker with the ability to deliver all of the beautiful transparency and detail that the Darts put out. The sources have not changed-
with the exception of the EMM Labs upgraded to SE's.
Fsarc - MDAT must be a new thing. Jtinn never mentioned that in his EMM SE thread, and I have no doubts he would, If only it has been available at the time. So who knows - maybe EMM come to senses and eventually decided to add some new features to CDSD SE ?
Czapp - do not worry. Jtinn have admited in another thread (now deleted - as most of EMM Labs related threads, btw) that the so called "upgrade" to CDSD Signature was only a name change, to keep up with the new Signature DACs. Do not ask me for logic behind that move, 'cos I don't get it either.
BTW - Since I also have Lamms M1.2, can you briefly describe the differences between the Lamm and the Dart ? I'm thinking of upgrading both my Avalons and my lamms, so I may equally well consider Marten/Dart combo.
