what cd player to buy


hello there,
hope this is in the right catagory. i have had a adcom gcd 575 cd player for about 19 years and that has been good but now the unit is skipping and parts are not available.

i'm looking at a nad c525 bee as opposed to a cambridge audio azur 340c,

would one unit be better than the other? i can get a real good deal on the cambridge.

i'm a guitarmaker, not audio crazy but i like good sound within my buget,

thanks for your thoughts.......juan

I have not owned either of the units but have had other products by both companies. They both should be good and give years of service. Try to hear both on equipment like yours or ideally try to take one home. Universal players are likely to be good at nothing in particular , especially at the low end. Why would a player that attempts to do several things be better than one that has one function. Computerizing your music is not likely to make it sound better without spending a lot of time and money. CDs, imperfect as they may be, are likely to be around for a long time.
