Interesting article here about Museatex and the Melior DAC in particular - http://www.soundbsessive.com/museatex-bitstream-dac/

When I was running ML Ascent/Descent a chap brought his EMM Labs SACD playyer round. Now that was great disc spinner. The best solid state digital I have ever heard (in a system I have owned) to this day I think. Crazy expensive. Knockout good.Quote:
