I had one for awhile after wanting one for a long, long time. Let me preface this by saying that I am a huge Cambridge Audio fan. I have the 840A amp and it is one of the best sounding solid state integrated amps I've ever owned. It absolutely smashed my McIntosh MA-6900. But the 840C was one of the biggest let downs in many years of audio purchases. Clinical is a good description. Unmusical would also be apt.
Cambridge Audio 840C player still a good buy ?
I am building a second system and have seen some 840C's go for around $ 750.00
Is this still a worthwhile player based on sonics?
I am leaving the DAC-access out of the equation for now, mainly interested in how it sounds compared to what is available for the money.
Thanks for your opinion!
