Abbingdon Music Research CD-77 impressions?


Now that it's been out a little while, anyone care to post your listening impressions?

Waldo51,

If you want to junk that SME30/2,V,Jan Allarerts, I will be glad to take it off your hands! The AMR CD-77 is very good, but I would find it very hard to believe that it would sound better than your analog setup.
Thanks to everyone for their impressions...sounds much like what the 6 Moons review concluded.
Has anybody used it as a DAC for computer-based audio? I'm getting a demo unit this week to have for a few days. I currently have a Wavelength Audio Crimson DAC. It will be compared to that, running Itunes off of a Mac-Mini.

Hi David,
I seem to recall from earlier posts that you're in Chicago; where did you get the demo? Also, does this suggest some dissatisfaction with the Crimson?
Slowhand, you're right the AMR isn't better, but close enough that now my listening will probably be equally divided. Before it was at least 75% analog.
