i've had a similar experience as kotta and akg--the oppo is fantastic for video, but for redbook cds my arcam cd73 and even an older rotel rc955 sounded better to my ears. i emphasize that this is purely my own, necessarily subjective opinion and that i haven't compared with other br players, which may sound better or worse
2 channel sound in a blu ray player
Audio guy for EVER!
2 channel amp
Arcam FMJ 23 cd player
all Cardas Golden wire
home made Fostex main and 12" polk subwoofer
Just bought a 58" Viera plasma and wish to know if I should keep my Arcam FMJ and purchase an inexpensive blu ray player as I am only going to listen to 2 channel audio and the very internal speakers on the Viera plasma
OR
Should I sell the aging Arcam 23 and purchase an Oppo or similar dual purpose Blu Ray and cd player?
thanks in advance for any/all responses!
