Arcam decision


I really need to upgrade my cd player. I have the choice of several Arcam models. One is the CD73@ $700, another is a used cd93 @ $1200 and the last and most costly is the cd192 @$1600. I am stepping up from an older pioneer elite from 1996 so I know all will be a major improvement. I have a rotel amp and B&K pre w/ Snell type D's. I defer to those in the know for assistance with this decision. Thanks.

Get the ring DAC. No question.
I understand dCS raised the asking price on their ring DAC and Arcam said "no" and switched to the Wolfson DACs... it's too bad, because the FMJ 23 is better than the 33. I just talked a friend into buying the CD92 --a demo from a local dealer (and it has the ring DAC) --and he phones all the time to say how much he loves that player.
