Upgrading cd player


I thinking about upgrading my Rega Isis CDP. I’m thinking about the Audio Research Ref 9se or the McIntosh MCD1200. Can anyone give me any thoughts / options on this ? Also I heard that Audio Research stopped production on the Ref 9se due to not being able to get the lasers anymore / that Phillips stopped making them ? I would also rather stick to a one box unit than separates. Ty.  Also if anyone else can recommend anything also I would appreciate it. My budget is up at about 12k

@ghdprentice TY  I really believe I made the right decision and I’m very confident that I will absolutely love the sound. Will be a very nice addition with my ARC Ref 750s and Ref 6SE.

Congratulations! The synergy between ARC products is superb, which is why I purchased a Ref CD 6SE. Enjoy!

Nice score! on the Ref CD9 player.

 

Happy Listening!

@jafant TY bro. I’m really looking forward to it arriving Tues. May it have a safe cross county journey from Ca to NJ. 👍
