Swapping Rotel RCD971 to Luxman D500xs..wise move?
Hi Audiogon folk,
need some advice please..I've been using a Rotel RCD971 for the past year which I bought used at an audiounion store in japan. My question is I have come across an interesting looking cd player - the luxman D500x's and wonder if it would be worth trading my rotel in for this.
I have no idea what it sounds like yet or whether it would better the Rotel. It seems to be built like a tank , however it was made in the early 90's so it is older than the rotel. The cost on top of the trade is very little. I did a google but not so much user info came up. Just old catalogue listing/ ads.
Any suggestions? I do like the Rotel the only thing is recently I have found myself listening to more LPs on my old sony PSE-4000 turntable as the listening experience has become more enjoyable.
Anyhow, just wondered if anyone had experience with the luxman and whether it's a good idea to swap cdplayers.
cheers
