I just started listening to my CD player again

Pangea gets overlooked because of the low price. The AC-14 is good for CD players. It's also shielded, so that would be better that a non-shielded one in theory, especially if there is noise around for it to pick up. They seem to sell fast here if you don't like it. Link.

I don't know if you own a power conditioner, but if you don't, I would consider purchasing the Audience AR1p. There's one up for sale now at $300+. (no, it's not mine). This may well make a bigger difference than a new power cord, depending on the quality of your existing power. In any case, if you don't like it you can sell it at a minimal or no loss. BTW, You can plug a Wiremold strip into it and have a conditioner for the rest of your system that sounds much better than most, IMO. Good luck.

Shunyada .

Give Pangea SE cord a try. If it won't match with the Gamut, post it up here and it'll be gone in less than 100 views; that's less than a day.
I love the Pangea cords, but I agree that the Shunyata' house-sound would better match with your Gamut. Q is, can you be happy with a $2-300 Shunyata Taipan?
The top line is significantly improves from the Taipan but they'd cost equally as your Gamut CD-1. This hobby sucks, ain't it?

Signal Cable's power cables have worked very well for me.

BTW, why did you quit listening to your CD player? What was your source after that? What made you come back to the CDP?
