Looking for a cd player that plays nice with classical orchestra.
Just got the Technics SL-G700 today. Beautiful player, mine is in Black. I am liking what I hear so far. Using regular phono outputs with stock cables. Will get better cables later but so far, sounds great. Listening to Enya and it sounds heavenly. I also like the fact that I can stream Qobuz directly from the app in full resolution through Google Cast although that functionality is not really highlighted. |
@jay73I I started a thread a few months back asking whether anyone has experience with SL- G700. Your comments would be helpful there https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/anybody-own-the-technics-sl-g700-sacd-player |
I just went through a similar process and have similar priorities. Most of what I tried were transports into my Lampizator Atlantic. I tried: Audiolab CDT 6000 - Good for the money for sure. Not in the same league as the others. Jay’s Audio CDT2 MK2 - Great sounding transport. A little sharp on the highs for classical at times in my system-- ultimately why I got rid of it. But very exciting. Line Magnetic LM-24 CDP - Meh, did not do anything offensive. Definitely tamed the highs with its tube buffer stage. But ultimately not enough resolution. Simaudio Moon 260D Transport - This is what I ended up with. 95% of the resolution of the Jay’s transport with a taming of the digital glare/harshness in the top end. Really happy with this transport. They also make a version with a DAC. I have not heard it but I think it would be worth trying. I tried to get my hands on a used Hegel Mohican to try. But it never came up for sale while I was in the market. I would definitely advocate checking that out if you can. It was on my shortlist. One more option that gets pretty rave reviews, but is quite a bit more expensive, is the Marantz SA-10. They sell for over 7k new. |
