ARCAM vs ROTEL

Virdian,
I am looking up reviews on the Rega Planet 2000, I guess I'm customed to the front load vice top load. What type of sound is the Rega Planet. As I have stated I'm looking for a warm sounding effect. I have been told that the Rotel is very bright in the vocals very detail, the Arcam is very warm sounding to instrumental detail. Whats your opinion on the Rega Planet. It makes it very difficult to chose without listening to different classes of CD players. I made my mistakes by purchasing speakers in the past without listening. Thou they are decent but was disappointed that the vendor has changed their style when making the speaker.

Thanks Al

Bob,

I would have to say that Denon's 3910 focus was video. It does an awesome job with the video, as far as a CD player I don't think there was such emphasis put into the audio portion of it. I does sound boxey if you know what I mean. When it comes to audio, the Denon 3910 isn't warm sounds blah!! No offense thou the 3910 is a great piece of material just think its primary soul was the video. Maybe the 5910 series is a better product for multi-function player.

Any other recommendations between the Rotel vs. Arcam or Rega Planet?
Thanks in advance.
Al
