Arcam CD92 vs. Cary 303/100

Why not try the FMJ CD23 by Arcam? I've noticed too that there seem to be a lot of the Cary cd players on the used market. Not sure why...

I own a DNA-125. It is a very clear-sounding amplifier, but could use a bit of softening (tube-like if I may say so). A fine amp indeed. I had the Cary 303 for 6 months. I sincerely beleive it's way overpriced and over-rated. Not a bad sounding unit, but very deceptive.I think Cary's forte is tube amplifiers, not digit boxes. Replaced it with a Rega 2000. My friends stopped laughing once they heard the music this diminutive player made. The rega has an easy-going presentation with excellent pacing, and complement the DNA's detail and crisp sound. A perfect match, try it !

Thanks for the advice. I've thought about going to the FMJ23 but I've been told there isn't much difference between the 92 and the 23. I haven't heard the Rega Jupiter but I'll try to find a dealer in my area.

Just my 2 cents...I've owned the Cary 303/100 for about 7 months and I can say it's the best cdp I've had in my system at its price point.
I also owned the "original" Rega Planet and found it to be boring and lifeless..a very overrated product.
The best way to find out which is right for you is to throw each rig into your system and let your ears make the final decision.

Jimmymac,
I've been auditioning the players you've asked about. The rega jupiter was a distant 3rd, I wouldn't do it. The cd 23 is a really good player for the $$. The Cary is IMHO the best. The smoothest, most musical, ya its a few more $$, but I thought is was worth it.
