Thanks one and all. I have read quite a few of the threads and it seems the same names, Carey, Muse, AR, etc. keep poping up. I'm a little surprised that the Rega's haven't been talked about yet but as I've said I've read quite a few threads. I appreciate you folks taking the time to write. As for the music I've got tons of classic rock, quite a bit of country (it took about 10 years in Texas to learn to like it} but, these days it's jazz, blues and classical. The new rig makes Beethoven rock! Oh yea, I don't have the outputs to make the old unit a decent transport but you're right my friend. It's very easy to spend too much money with too little to "hear" for it. But we're all a little nuts on here arn't we? Thanks again for the info.
CD Player Recommendation?
I've begun to upgrade and am looking for a 2k or under CD player. I don't care to get too fancy but I want something that will keep me happy for the next few years or until the sacd vs. dvd-a vs. hdcd thing gets settled. Not a chance I'm going to spend any more than fifteen bucks on a recording unless it's vintage vinyl and something I can't live without. So far I'm running a new McIntosh MC352 w/ the C42 preamp with Acoustic Zen connectors on out to a pair of Talon Khorus's via Acoustic Zen Satori cables. I'm pretty dang happy so far but I'd bet my old Magnavox CDB-650 would sound better hooked up to my garage or bedroom system. I think I want to have balanced outputs but don't care if they have analogue capabilities. Used is fine if it isn't more than one year old. Any recommendations would be truly appreciated.
