The first thing you’ll notice about the Emotiva ERC-1 CD player is that it looks great. The faceplate of the player and the remote are brushed aluminum painted black accented with unfinished brushed aluminum at the edges. Nice. When it’s turned on the buttons on the face of the player light up with blue halos. This player would look right at home next to Macintosh gear.

My wife, who I affectionately refer to as “the music Anti-Christ” often calls me “He without Brains” when it comes to purchasing audio gear. Our latest interchange of pleasantries began when I announced that I needed a new CD player in the $1500 to $2000 range. She found one at Costco for considerably less than a hundred bucks and thought I would be very pleased. “You just don’t get it” I said, to which she replied “Neither will you”. I think she meant it in so many ways.

I well remember the day I got my first NAD product back in the 70’s. I have long since forgotten the model number, but it was a stereo receiver. I remember listening to it and thinking how great it sounded compare to the old Marantz it was replacing. I knew back then that moving up to the NAD meant that I was no longer just listening to tunes. I had moved up into the realm of being a lover of music, an audiophile.

The portable music player (PMP) or digital audio player (DAP) market is evolving in a major way. Many DAPs are actually better described as personal media players or PMPs, with as much focus on functionality in video and additional features as the core audio performance. Another major paradigm shift is the move to flash memory based devices, and correspondingly…away from hard drives, but for some users, flash still doesn’t offer the needed storage capacity.
