Not knowing your system,and assuming you’re not already using balanced power; I recommend you audition an Equitech 2Q. You may be very pleased at the quality of sound “hidden” in your present system. I use one along with MIT p/c’s and a Sound Application unit.
I have been using the Cambridge 851 CD player for a few years and want more.
I have too many CD's to get out of the medium. I wonder what you would recommend (from your experience) as an upgrade for the 851 which I kind of like. should I consider a new player or adding a DAC? I'm retired so I can't go with the most expensive options. Please advise.
Thanks,
Thanks,

Get a good used DAC, and good BNC coax cable and a Synchro-Mesh reclocker to reduce jitter of your transport. For digital, reducing the source jitter is actually the most important thing: http://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?topic=154408.0 Used DAC - $1000 Coax Cable - $275 Synchro-Mesh, OTL - $699Once you have this, you can think about getting a network solution, like a Sonos Connect for $599. This can be easily added in. Then you can rip all of your CD's and play them from any computer. Steve N.Empirical Audio |
