Advise for CD player upgrade? Arcam? Rega? MF?


I'm going to be upgrading my old Yamaha Cd player, and hope
the sages of A-gon can offer up some thoughts. My current
system is rounded out with a Plinius 8200MKII integrated, Totem Forests, and an NAD phono. My budget is in the $1500
-$ 2000 ballpark. I'm considering new and used. Some of the units that have caught my attention are: M Fidelity 3.2cd, Naim CD5, Arcam CD23, Rega Jupiter, and Classe' CDP10. I listen to a very wide range in music. Suggestions? Thanks!

You may want to check out the new Arcam CD33 with upsampling. Otherwise the CD23 (which I own) is also a great choice, especially if you can find a used one. When I shopped for a CD player, I preferred the CD23 over the Rega.

That said, I don't think you can go wrong with any of the players you listed. It's just how well the player matches with the rest of your system.
