REVIEW:
The dCS Scarlatti is the best-sounding, most satisfying digital playback system I've heard. I found myself listening to more CDs than ever before.

For me, the Scarlatti profoundly narrows the gap between analog and high-resolution digital, and for many it will surely close that gap altogether. Those with big SACD collections—and big bank balances—need to hear its effortlessly transparent, tonally neutral, airy performance as it decodes their favorite SACDs. Played on the Scarlatti, the best CDs sounded more vibrant, dimensional, transparent, and effortless than I'd ever heard them.

dCS has built a jewel of a four-box system that will make you very happy for a very long time, no matter what the audio future brings. The price is steep, but it's the best digital I've heard.
