I HAD A72T WITH A "YAMAHA 640" AV RECIEVER AND MISSION 753 SPEAKERS. I ALSO HAVE SENNHISER 590 AND RECENTLY 650 HEADPHONES. I FELT THAT THE CD73T DEMOED IN A HIFI SHOP SOUNDED BETTER THAN THE 72T BUT WAS UNCONVINCED UNTIL I HEARED THE CD93T. I THEN DECIDED TO UPGRADE TO THE CD 82T AND CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT THE SOUND IS MUCH MORE DETAILED AND CLEARER WITHOUT BEING ANALYTICAL :( WHICH IS A PUT OFF ) HERE IN THE UK THE UPGRADE COST £199 AND TOOK A COUPLE OF HRS.
THE MINIDISC RECORDINGS OFF THE 82 HAVE FAR MORE MUSICAL INFORMATION THAN THE 72. I COULD DEFINITELTY HEAR ENOUGH OF A DIFFERENCE ESPECIALLY WITH THE HEADPHONES WHICH ARE VERY PRECISE. IS IT WORTH £199?: THAT IS A VALUE JUDGEMENT YOU CAN MAKE BUT ONLY ON YOUR SYSTEM AND TASTE IN MUSIC.WITH ROCK, METAL OR GARAGE A BETTER AMPLIFICATION /PRE AMP MIGHT BRING BETTER BENEFITS
