An advantage of the New Tube 4000 is the ability to upgrade, including to an upsampler.
Classe CD .3 is indeed built like a tank. Weighs about 15-20 lbs, has balanced and RCA unbalanced outputs, a wonderful DAC and a smooth yet detailed sound. You should listen to it first since it isn't for everybody. I like mine and have listened to many since buying it and still go back to it. It will only occasionally play CD-Rs. Good luck!
