What a stunner! I called to order this product as an economical transport for use downstairs but somehow got convinced the audiolab was a better deal at slightly more. I listened to the audiolab and was very unimpressed unless played at higher volumes. One call and the guys arranged a swap out for the next day. What a difference the CXC has life,depth and picks out the detail at any volume. I am the proud owner of an outrageously priced system also and I can quite honestly say that unless you have over a thousand pound in your pocket for A transport then this is the baby for you. It is so good that my Wife is now questioning why I have the stupidly priced hi fi in my toy room. The team at Richer have been amazing and cant be praised enough. Sometimes they receive a bad rap for just moving boxes well I can assure you this is the best transport under 1k used with a decent dac. This is a real winner at an unbelievable price. Well done Richer Sounds. One small note would be if you havent listened to Ten Millenia then do so (its the hold music) first listen i wasnt blown away but it grows and gets under your skin. I even now have it in my car as does my Wife.
