Has anyone auditioned an Arcam CD37? Or any other


Has anyone auditioned an Arcam CD37? Or any other recommendations new or used under $2k.

I have a BAT 3iX preamp, BAT VK55amp, Vandersteen 2ci speakers. I currently have an Arcam CD82. It sounds great but is 6-7yrs old. My guess is that there has been improvement in CD players since.

I like the the way the arcam sounds. Since incorporating the BATs with the Arcam, instruments and vocals sound incredibly real. I am not looking for anything to be exaggerated or muddied , like bass for example. I listen mainly to classical and vocals.

Thanks

You already have a great player. Unless you NEED SACD, I'd leave well enough alone. Maybe have your signal caps upgraded and upgrade your op-amps. Save money and probably beat the heck out of your off the shelf solutions. Arcam CD players are hard to beat, across the range. I've had my CD72 for nearly 7 years and it's still better than most I've heard into the many thousands.
