the reason i am not looking for a cd2 is its age and the chance that the transport , i.e., laser will need replacement. my player is showing signs of wear and has tracking problemsIt's easy and inexpesnive to replace a laser -- even the whole transport mechanism if necessary. I assume you've considered this -- but just in case? You really don't need to change the whole product...
problems with 24 bit cd players
i am searching for a cd player--preferably one with tubes.
i have auditioned a number of them and something is wrong. i perceive a dip in the 100 to 200hz region and a slight peak in the upper mids/lower treble region.
is it possible that one can buy a current production player which is 20 bit and no up sampling ?
i haven't found any, nor am i looking for a dac, although i am aware that there exists non-upsampling dacs.
