I got the upgrade bug! I have A Raysonic 168 and have been thinking about getting an Ayre CX-7eMP (used) Is this a decent upgrade?

Once every couple of months I take everything apart and clean and re-connect. I have about $2200-$2500 to spend. It's a hobby so buying new gear and changing things around is fun for me.

I recommend buying one off of Agon for about $2k and try it. You can always re-sell it and get your money back. My bet is that you find the MP to be a killer CDP and sell the Raysonic.
