CDP would be my first move. Apollo & Cary 308T are both strong contenders.
$1000 upgrade budget- cdp or speaker?
My current system is centered around much tube rolled c-j cav50 integrated tube amp (45w per ch) driving a pair of BW cdm1 se on the Osiris stands. The front end is a Toshiba SD9000 used as a cd player.
Although I have enjoyed the combination for the last 5 years, I am thinking about the upgrade path now. For a budget of $1000, I am considering either to replace the Toshiba with well reviewed CD or SACD combo(used Apollo, Cary 308T, CEC, Sony SCD777es and others) or sell my speaker and go get a used pair of BW 805s.
The listening room is not large and I do not push the volume too much in consideration for the neighbor downstairs.
Any opinion or suggestion would be welcomed.
Thanks!
