Music Fidelity E624 CD Player

I have one in my MF collection, same electronics as X-Ray but sounds different as larger cabinet allows more spacious layout, most say it sounds better. I also have A3CD and belive it is better than E624, even though most components are the same there is a difference. E624 has digital 24/96 output so good to use as transport for the many excellent $1000 or less DACs now available.

PS: In regard to "bass", I should note that I settled on a CAL Icon II player that has a reputation for having too much "bass". We are all looking for slightly different sounds in equipment. And again, I did like the overall sound of the player. I saw one recently (here or at Audio Review) but they do not come up for sale very often, considering that Audio Advisor probably sold a slew of them over the Internet.

Thanks i have found out that the difference is a better power supply in the A3CD.

I would like to own the A3CD to use as a transport, but do not care for the gold and silver look. I still may reconsider when and if a $1,000.00 is available for equipment upgrades. I would like to own something new anyway so that I can put the miles on it myself. I like the idea of using a player instead of a dedicated transport as you can still listen to it when having the DAC upgraded. Which seems likely to happen in the future.
