What CDP gets really close to vinyl?


Hello, I have been looking for a CD player that is truly airy, transparent, and in this sense similar to vinyl. So far I did not have much luck. I tried a variety of brands, from Rega to Meridian to Ayre, and now own an EAR Acute. Each of these players is wonderful in its own way, but the sense of spaciousness, air, the "I am there in the symphony hall" feeling has never achieved what I can get with a good turntable and good cart. Has anyone had better luck?

I just picked up a NAD C-565BEE cd player and it is very close to vinyl.<<

Maybe to your vinyl.

Not mine.
Cary SACD with built in DAC that you can use separately with a Synergistic Research Hologram D powercord. You can switch sampeling rates on the fly with the remote.
Audiofeil.
Your probably right. I have a very modest turntable and maybe I should have said that.
But, What I stated is what I hear in my system.
Most vinyl lovers have 10X the money that the NAD cost in they're turntables.

47 Lab Flatfish + super Audio Note DAC surpasses vinyl set ups I have heard.<<

I suggest you've not heard many decent vinyl front ends as that pairing will be trashed by most good analog combinations.
