any opinions about the bat vk d5 cd player ?


i'm about to buy a bat vk d5 cd player because it was recommended to me by an audio dealer as warmer sounding than the cary 303/300 .

i don't entirely trust a salesman's opinion and would really appreciate any input as to the sound of this cd player.

I have both so here is my take. The BAT in the 6922/6dj8 has more of a honey glow to the music than the Cary. The Cary has more detail and more deep low end extension. I would say that perhaps the best description is the BAT has what I would call the classic tube sound of the 60's, while the Cary sounds like you went thru a 60's unit and updated caps, resistors and other parts. Email me if you need to know more.
