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

Hi Juan, another guitarmaker here.

For the price, the NAD is a nice player and personally I might choose it over the Cambridge because it is smoother sounding. But the choice really depends on the rest of your system and your listening preferences, so auditioning them both is really your best option.

If you can't do that, then if you would like a bit more high frequency information (which might be the case if your speakers are also 19 years old), the Cambridge might be preferable.

Good luck.
