I have the original CXC, altho it doesn't get much use, when I do listen to CD'S it sounds just fine. I thing for the price, it's a decent piece of gear.
Cambridge Audio CXC Series 2
Cambridge has come out with the Series 2 CXC transport. Based upon a conversation I had with a dealer the only differences between it and the original model are a new faceplate and finish; there's no technology change. Cost bumps up $150 for the cosmetics. If you have plans on buying the CXC the original version is on sale as I guess stock needs to be moved out.
