My CD player's specs

There are only 16 bits of information on the disc. Using convertors with greater is only done to increase DAC linearity. Contrary to Bob's assertions I believe jitter is extremely important, and swamps distortions in the analog output. Bob ... try fitting a low jitter oscillator to a budget CDP like a Marantz CD67 if you don't believe me.

I think Tvad is correct that specs are meaningless and the best you can do is to listen to some newer CDPs. If you buy a used CDP from audiogon and resell it if it doesn't outperform the luxman it will cost you very little.

Specs look ok except the dynamic range seems a little low.

My speakers are very good, well I think they are, they are Kef 104/2 and Kef 105/3.

The power amp is a Luxman as well so I'm torn as to whether or not I should upgrade my amp or CDP first.

Now I'm thinking about it I just might take my CDP to my local store and do a comparison there.

I have a Sony 5 Disc carousel CDP, 10 years old,and when I do A/B comparisons between my two CPs there is very little difference.
