Who do you think makes the CD player with the best dynamics (without being harsh) under $7K? I've been shopping for a new player and have noticed this is an area of wide variablility among players.
Sim Audio Eclipse is VERY dynamic. The Wadia is even better with imaging but it's also almost double the price...
Everyone seems to be in love with the Audio Aero Capitole (which I didn't audition) but I don't know if it's a CDP that delivers a very dynamic sound...
At this moment I have an ARC CD3 taking the place of my Meridian 506.24 for an extended audition & suggest you give it a listen. Unbelievable music coming from this unit. With the extra 2k you were planning on spending you could buy a few CD's.
I agree with Waltersalas. I own the Electrocompaniet EMC-1 24/192, and it has dynamics in spades, particularly when using Virtual Dynamics power cables. Even my former MIT Z-Cord II power cables couldn't dampen its dynamics.
