Thanks again Ed and Analogtroll for your opinions and comparisons with the Ayre players. Yea, cant go wrong with either one for sure. Guess we will see if I can come up with the scratch to splurge on the C-5xe since it is a bit better player all around and has the bonus of SACD which I enjoy listening to.
Ayre C-5XE universal v. CX-7e on redbook CDs?
Has anyone had a direct comparison at home with redbook CD on the Ayer C-5xe universal v. the CX-7e CD player??
I want to upgrade my CD player next month and although I enjoy listening to SACDs and have about 100 SACD's I am not sure its worth the extra $2500 for the C-5xe player unless redbook CDs are a huge amount better on this universal player? I have heard the CX-7e and love it for redbook.
Have you found that both players sound pretty much the same for redbook or is the C-5xe really a huge amount better?
Thanks for your feedback!
