Please help me figure out what I need to do this. My head spins with tech talk..
Perhaps this could be your end game: https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649456868-amr-cd77-reference-cd-player-one-of-the-best/ It isn't cheap, but it wasn't cheap to begin with. |
Nekoaudio..yes...I know reviews can never substitute hands on...when I assembled my system I went through many hours /days/weeks listening..I enjoyed that high when i hit that slice of nirvana..Mahler: I am not counting out a SACD capable CDP...I have upwards of 800 classical CD's ..it's a couple of lifetimes of relistening that I plan to re-start... 2psyop: I get it, I really do..that I may be not taking advantage of new technology..There's partially a practical reason: I work 6 days a week and to find the gear , (that's the fun part that I am up for), but what sounds like time consuming process of transferring my CD collection sounds like eating up precious listening time... audiothesis: that AMR could be a wow... I need to make sure I same or better my nirvana... |
If you are considering 2.5 to 3k possible to spend on a cdp, this one could also be setting you up for life https://www.ebay.com/itm/Gryphon-Adagio-CD-Player-with-box-remote-and-manual/132766285909?ssPageName... |
I've had a few AMR CD-777 and they are fantastic - some of the best CD players I've heard. I recommended that one because I think not only will the performance meet your expectations but so will the infusion of the tube and what it brings to the table. I fear without a tube in the source you might be chasing gear for a while to be content. |
I really do think tubes have to be somewhere in this chain for me..I remember when I first started out in search..I went through many solid state cdp’s that left either ho-hum or near agitation...then my Jolida JD100 had me thinking I was on the right path..then the BAT flew in and it was like puppy dog tail wags and rainbows...and a Beethoven symphony brought tears of joy.. |
