A used Bel Canto DAC2 will run you what the new CD73 costs, but will beat it by a nice margin. Even connected to your DVD player. This is a better approach IMO. Smoother, richer sound with less of digital grain.
arcam cd73 at end of life span?
i'm in the market for a new cd player...
i've listened to the azur 640c, will be listening to the Rega Apollo, and am considering listening to the Arcam CD73.
My question is this - while everyone seems to agree that the Arcam is a great player, with recent upgrades at their price points from Rega and Cambridge Audio, do you think that the cd73 will be replaced/updated any time soon? does it still hold its own at it's price point, and is it worth the price difference over the very strong azur 640c?
