Transports and DACs have improved a lot over the last couple decades. So, newer much better. But the technology has also advanced. Streaming will offer the same sound quality (carefully chosen, compatible like everything else in high end audio), but you get access to over 10 million albums and over half a million of high resolution (higher than CD quality) with a service like Qobuz… $14.99 / month… the price of a single CD. I have 4,000 albums and have not listened to them in years. To do this you need a DAC and streamer… separated are best.
CD Player: Vintage or modern ones?
I’ve been given a collection of classical and jazz CD’s, last time I had or played one was like 20 years ago with a humble Denon I bought saving for few months.
Now that I have a pretty good system, wondering if worth to get a good CD Player or find some “old glory”, but I’m totally lost.
The one that appeals to me is the Audis Flight FL Three S in black (must be black to match rest of my Italian system, ideally from that beautiful country), or the Goldnote CD-10, even some TEAC. Regarding more older units, I’m totally lost.
Any suggestion? Rest of the system is made by Diesis Audio (Speakers, Ampnand cables).
Thanks in Advance.
