Ayre CX-7E or Musical Fidelity A5?


Upgrading time again for cd player.
The list is very short, just only between Ayre cx-7e
and MF A5.
Hope can get decisive input from you wiseguys.
Thanks.

I am the proud owner of the MF A5 Intergrated Amp and A5 CD Player. My humble opinion is that the Muscial Fidelity is going to blow your mind!!!
I'm currently using Aerial 7B speakers which are extremely power hungry. Transparent Super MM series interconnects, Transparent Supers Speaker cables and just the same stock power cords that came with both units. I have tried different power cords such as the Shunyata Alpha Helix and the DH Labs Power Cord. BUT, I'll tell you now. You will notice very very little difference in the sound with the A5 series. Musical Fidelity is just that good. They got it right the first time. Now you will notice a big difference with the A3 amp and A3 CD player if you use the Shunyata Power Cords but not with the A5 stuff. I hope this helps your decision.
