Kotaro was wondering if you compared the CDC version with its own built in solid state pre amp going sraight to a power amp with the CDP cd only version going through the Nagra tube preamp.I'm wondering which sounds best. Thanks Philip.
I have heard CDC with and without PL-L. The power amp was PMA. With PL-L, it sounds so warm and exiting. Without PL-L, it becomes cool and high resolution sound. But not so exiting.
I think if you have PL-L, CDP could be better. But the pannel face of CDC is so wonderful.
If you are spending this amount of money on a CD player right now IMO you are making a big mistake. CD's will be dead soon, and you will be forced to sell this VERY EXPENSIVE player at a more than considerable loss.
Wavelength Crimson DAC is worth looking into, and will surprise you.
