Bel Canto DAC 2.7 and their CDt3 make a great combo. One remote controls all functions of the DAC and CD transport. I use the AES out from the CDt3 to the DAC 2.7. CDt3 uses a Sanyo slot loading mechanism
Looking for a CD player
Dear community,
I listen to CDs only and I have owned an entry level AMC CD9 CD player for the past 15 years.
Over time I modified this unit to the max with very good results.
Now I think I am ready to move on to the next level so I am looking for a used CD player under $1,500.
One that can be further improved would be also interesting.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks!

Hi sounasega, I'm currently using a Focusrite Clarett 4Pro DAC from a PC lossless source and an Intona galvanic isolation device...the combo in the neighborhood of $900. The Clarett affords options of balanced, unbalanced and subwoofer(s) usage. As a passionate 40+ year music lover, my advisors claim $3k+ would be required to substantially better this performance. Good luck! More Peace, Pin |
Resolution Audio Opus 21 (4XPCM1704 R2R ladder d/a converters).Hmmm very nice, last "best" (PCM1704) of the R2R ladder dacs before the discrete ones.
