I am not surprised :grin:

If it sounds as good the rest of the Electrocompaniet range it will be amazing and even though it is not exactly cheap it will be extremely good value and very well sorted !

Interesting choice of rack/support that they recommend...


Yes that solid Norwegian granite stand combined with the green organic environmentally friendly damping material looks unique and quite special to me 8) 8) :grin:

If he is could you let me know what tomorrows Euro millions lottery numbers will be :grin: :pray:

The Electrocompaniet ECI 6 DS seems to be a serious piece of kit that has a high current powerful amp that will drive almost any speaker made and has everything you could possibly want from a streamer too , I am sure it will make a lot of other well known manufacturers sit up and take notice and maybe even panic a little bit .

The remote control display is a nice touch too , I have a feeling it will sell extremely well and I also have a feeling there will be various alternative versions in the future :)

I would like to have seen them bring out a separate streamer first (for those who have already got a good amp) and then follow with an ECI 6 DS product.

Yes I think you are probably right it would have made sense to realease a separate streamer first followed by the EC1 6 DS

Actually I have changed my mind over night about this . The big and probably only problem Electrocompaniet has in the UK is persuading potential customers to put convention to one side for a short period and listen to something a little different to the normal recommended candidates .

Once a potential customer has heard what an Electrocompaniet amplifier can do even for a short demo then the sale is usually assured as long as the customer is a serious buyer ( Yes they are that good :) ) .

So if a customer is looking for a streamer in the EC1 6DS price range and the dealer demos this model with a built in Electrocompaniet amp the customer gets to hear an Electrocompaniet amp at the same time which I believe will open many eyes and ears to just how good they are which can only be good for all involved so maybe Electrocompaniet have done the right thing by releasing the EC1 6DS first .

I still see it differently.

Electrocompaniet is not that widely available and hence not that well known. The most likely customer for the stand alone streamer will come from existing owners, but it is this very customer who will hold off until this becomes available. It will then be their feedback on forums like this that will fuel interest, and cause the 6DS to sell.

There is also the fact that just because the streamer was separate, doesn't preclude it from being demoed along with an Electro amp. I also think that there may be more people looking for a quality streaming source (instead of CDP) to front up their already good system (which they're happy with), than a streamer/amp combined, which is more costly at the outset and is less flexible/more expensive, if future upgrades end up being on the cards.

Of course this is only my view and could be totally wrong.

Yes I suppose that makes sense :) I just get frustrated because there is so much superb equipment available that people miss out on .

You are one of the few people that recommends different and interesting equipment that is often far superior to the mainstream products that get recommended over and over again, and like you I would like more people to listen to different top quality brands like Electrocompaniet that constantly get overlooked .

Would it be churlish of me to suggest that it's a little, erm, ugly? Certainly doesn't look like a 4000+ pound piece of kit. Maybe it looks and feels better in the flesh. I'm sure it sounds great. I'd be keen to audition it.

Yes I suppose beauty is in the eye of the beholder :) I would not call it ugly but it could be accused of being quirky or a little old fashioned but that look and style is the Electrocompaniet trademark in a similar way to McIntosh equipment, a retro style if you like .

The overall look of Electrocompaniet equipment has not changed much since 1990 and the front acrylic panel is a pain to keep fingerprint free but I could forgive them anything for the sound quality all of their classic line products are quite special IMO :)
