Hifiman, you are correct, of course I am referring to the Marantz 8005. Old age is hell. A good player made great by Dans mods. For the money it plays beautiful music.
Reference disc player...UDP 205 or Marantz?
Hey guys....
I've decided to take the plunge, and get my last reference disc player--at least for a very long time--and I'm looking for opinions on the subject.
I really wanted to get the Marantz SA-14S1, it sounds fantastic for sure, but I started to read all the glowing reviews on the Oppo UDP-205. Is it just hype, or the real thing? Is the Oppo really that rare piece of equipment that punches that far above its price? Who here has listened to the oppo and/or the Marantz? How do they compare?
Thanks!
