Accuphase vs Marantz cdp


Hi -

I am in the provess of deciding my next step to upgrade my current CDP (accuphase DP55) - I am in willing to invest up to $3KUSD.

Some say the Marantz line are worth to consider (I just need red book capacbilities) and some others recommend me going back to Wadia.

I will greatly appreciate your comments/suggestions, please check my system as for compatibility issues, my tastes go for 50% Jazz, 30% pop+alternative, 20% ensambles/classical.

Regards,

Fernando

your accuphase probably competes with most players in the 3k price range. most of the real world improvements since the dp55 came along, are in the software's mastering. a music server perhaps, but another redbook player at this point is overkill. you're already using a benchmark player.
