Emax

i read a post on another forum that compared the two.  since the emax
samples at 12-bit but uses 8-bit compression, whereas the sp1200 is
true 12-bit, he said that the difference between the two are very
subtle but are for the most part identical.

i'm trying to dig up that post but i can't find it.

i'll see if i can borrow my friend's sp1200 to do the comparison myself.
