CD Player Recommendations…

Do you still own the CD32 ? If not, did you upgrade to a different player?

Happy Listening!

Does Rega still make CD players?  I once owned a Rega Apollo that went for about a grand and was smooth, refined, and polite, possibly what the OP was interested in.  I haven’t heard much about their digital side in the last several years

" nothing good can be bought for 1000 ... money wasted ... "

In audio as in life I suppose.  Cars, hookers, fancy meals, Lakers' tickets, concerts ...

With a little patience you can pick up an Oppo 105 <$1000, which also plays SACD/DVD-A and even movies. Then, on Ebaye you can buy aftermarket Linear Power Modules from ~ $200 up. One of the companies even provides excellent pictures to walk you through (hey I did it) also get the Furutech IEC with silver jumper to the power supply board and the jumper to bypass the 110/220 switch. Once complete leave the top off. I bought a $4 air con filter to keep junk out

Hi jfant,
 I never had a CD32. what brand? 
Hi folks,Thanks for all the suggestions folks. My previous cd player was a cambridge cxc going into an arcam irdac. I still have the irdac as i use it for streaming, however, the cxc (with irdac) made everything sound a little too full and bloomy. Add that to the 308’s fuller sound and f30’s forward mids, and it was a little overkill. Hence, i sold the cxc to get a standalone cdp; as cd is still my reference. In fact, i use streaming to discover new music, then buy the disc!
