upgrade question...

Considering some new inexpensive digital to replace (and hopefully improve) existing digital source(Rotel 951 into a MSB LinkII). two options I'm leaning toward are 1. Music Hall 25 cd player (new) 2. used Rotel 991ae for about $600. Rest of system McCormack DNA 225, Rogue 99, PSB Stratus gold, Rega P25. Anyone possibly hear either of these in some sort of similar context? Thanks, Mike

Rotel 991 AE is a great unit,especially if you take it used on A-gon.Well worth$600-700. IMO.

Go for a DVD. I had a Rotel 951 like yours. Now I am happy with a Pioneer DV 45A which cost me only $500, and I have seen it listed at $400 (but out of stock!). Consider that this unit not only plays your CD's, but also DVD-A and SACD (both) as well as DVD-V movies. To my ear, the media upgrade, particularly SACD, outweighs the benefit of esoteric capacitors in a straight CD player.
