Thanks for the info Charles1dad. Have you listened to the Metrum or is your interest based on the reviews or what you might have heard through the grapevine? It sounds quite interesting.
5+ years old $5k player vs. current $2k player
Hi,
Been thinking the above question: which one would be a better choice?
Price for these older players (e.g. Esoteric, Wadia, etc.) ends up being in similar price than recent vintages like Ayon, PS Audio, etc. And perhaps even the Oppo as a transport?
Did CD technology really improve significantly in the last few years such that these "cheaper" but newer players will out perform the older but top-line players?
Especially player like the PS Audio PWT, the concept is certainly new (for CD transport) & the theory does make sense...
