Yes but always pleased with the new. I had some problems with my 5k CDP (approx 2 yr old) and had to send it in for repair. I got back my old CDP back (approx 19 yr old) as a backup and even though at the time when I bought the new one I wasnt sure if I made a wise choice. The difference seemed so minor at the time. All I can say is I'm glad its back because now those differences were a lot more than minor.
That being said I was demoing speaker cables and did get new ones which also improved on the sound of the new player but brought out more flaws in the old one.
So I have to say yes I've taken a step back but glad I upgraded the things I did.
