Entry CD player question?

If you look at my system you'll see what I have to help me decide on a CD player.

I can't help wonder about my stereo receiver's matching Rotel RCD1072 single disc player, instead of the Marantz which was the top 5 disc player at the time. If anyone knows, please let me know.

Much appreciated,

Mike

Simple, I just want to know if rcd1072 is better than cc4001. If it is then it will match my receiver, so its a win, win.

The 1072 came out in 2004...if you are set on Rotel, the new lower cost Rotel's are better than both...and they just introduced some new MKll versions so the remaining stock of the MKl's are available at good prices...

My Marantz cc4001 is the same era as 1072

yes, the newer Rotel and Marantz models sound much better than both the 1072 and 4001...I currently have a Marantz CD6006 and Rotel CD11 Tribute , both excellent and reasonably priced...

True, but I’m looking at used 1072 to match receiver. I would think it's better than my Marantz.
