I'm taking votes

I've decided to sink about another 20K in my system. I would like to upgrade either my digital front end or speakers. The CD12 would be my first choice for a CD player, and the Wilson Benesch Chimeras would be be my first choice for a speaker upgrade. What would you do, and why would you do it?

The CD12 is just fabulous. I would get one if I could. I have never heard a better CD player, no matter what system I heard it in.

Get an Audio Note DAC3.1 balanced. Start here. You haven't heard CD's until hear this. I didn't like listening to them until I got one of these.

Linn CD12, the Wilson Benesch speakers are good but the CD12 is fantastic- IMO

speakers definitly before CD.

Why?

I think the CD format is not advanced enough to warrant the $ for the performance and technology offered. By the time you have broken in the speakers something elso digital will be available, save your money that is my vote.

CD, various sampling rates, HDCD, DVDa, SACD... ?
