Arcam vs. Creek vs. Rega


I am looking for new CD player. Have narrowed to Arcam CD 72, CreekCD43mk2, or Rega Planet 2000. Have only heard Rega, would have to order the others for in home trial.Thanks for any input.

hi- I own the new planet and am selling it (thoughI like it) because i need a front- loading player. I recently ABed an old Planet to an Arcam cd-72 and the Arcam was clearly a better player-more detail,more 3-dimensional etc.-but that was the old Planet.The Arcam is also up-gradeable.I'm curious what you decide-good luck.
Miked- I haven't compared them directly but i have a feeling that they are pretty similar sonically- the Arcam is probably a touch more detailed (and upgradeable) and the rega is like the old one but a bit more dynamic and somewhat better bass (and top-loading, of coarse).
