If you are asking, which CDP maintains or presents a more analog sound, timbre and warmth. I have been very pleased with my Ayre C5xe-mp especially since the MP upgrade. However, I can't be fooled if someone does a blind A-B between LP and CDP, but it is close, in my opinion.
Have to agree with ( Theo ) I have the same Ayre player, but I use mine as a transport and link it to an Audio Research DAC 8. I won't say it's like vinyl but it's as close to it, as digital has come, and still managed to keep digitals superiority in a few area's.
